Organ-On-A-Chip Technologies for Blood–Retinal Barriers - Women in Science

Tamara Molitor is a doctoral researcher within the Cluster of Excellence 3D Matter Made to Order (3DMM2O), a joint research cluster of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and Heidelberg University funded by the DFG. In this interview, Tamara talks about her research project „Reconstruction of the blood-retinal interface by combining new hydrogel materials and stem cell technologies“. The reconstruction is performed using an organ-on-a-chip technology for outer-blood-retinal barriers. This technology allows more sophisticated three-dimensional models and is able to approximate actual tissue organization providing additional tools for disease modeling and investigation compared to traditional two-dimensional cell culture. The main task of the Cluster 3DMM2O is to take 3D Additive Manufacturing to the next level. In 2020, Tamara received a Carl Zeiss Foundation scholarship. The Carl Zeiss Foundation scholarship program offers around 20 stipends for doctoral researchers.
