ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this episode we get to know Jana, who is currently working on her PhD in the field of biomedical engineering at the University of Twente in the Netherlands. She shares insights into her fascinating research on creating tiny hearts using human stem cells (organ-on-a-chip), which can be used for disease modeling and have the potential to reduce the need for animal testing. We also explore how her work connects to neuroscience and discuss career opportunities for PhD candidates beyond academia.
