Description:

The ARTORG Center for Biomedical Engineering Research brings together the biomedical engineering and clinical departments of the University Bern to benefit human health through the translation of multidisciplinary research. The teams at the ARTORG are led by joint technical and clinical group heads to address the unmet needs of patients. By fostering creative teamwork within and across the ARTORG teams, scientific discoveries on novel medical devices for surgery and rehabilitation, simulation of physiological processes and the use of artificial intelligence and smartphone Apps are transformed to improve the delivery of clinical care. Interdisciplinary research into the societal impact of disruptive medical technology and implications on policy and healthcare delivery economics complement the holistic approach to research. The wider network of the ARTORG includes Bern University of Applied Sciences, Swiss institutes of technology and International partners from leading research institutions. Collaborations with regional, Swiss National and International companies from industry accelerate the transfer of pilot and prototype work to commercial partners to support growth and prosperity. ARTORG receives 3RCC Grant Three out of four project grants by the Swiss Competence Center dedicated to the 3R principles Replace, Reduce, Refine go to the University of Bern this year. One of the grantees is Olivier Guenat, Head of the Organs-on-Chip Technologies group at ARTORG (left). Together with Thomas Geiser from the Inselspital Department of Pneumology Guenat proposes to develop a new model to study idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a fatal lung disease that results in the scarring of the lungs, to replace the so far prevalent but flawed bleomycin-induced lung-injury and lung fibrosis model. Two other projects by Christiane Albrecht and Marianna Kruithof-de Julio are likewise funded.Details on the ARTORG project... Daniel Abler part of Catalyst Europe 2020 Daniel Abler as member of the ARTORG Computational Bioengineering group has been selected one of 12 fellows for Catalyst Europe. Based on the Catalyst framework of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Catalyst Europe aims to accelerate and heighten the potential impact of biomedical research on health technology. Together with fellow scientists and multi-disciplinary faculty from three EU hubs and the MIT, the former Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellow Daniel Abler will be evaluating unmet medical needs and define clinically applicable research projects.About Calatyst Europe… SurgeonsLab wins second stage Venture Kick support SurgeonsLab, the ARTORG Image-guided Therapies spinoff, has won stage 2 funds from Venture Kick along with two other medical technology startups.The founders Fredrick Johnson Joseph, ARTORG, and Dr. med. David Bervini, neurosurgeon at Inselspital, have created SurgeonsLab to produce patient-specific training models for trailing microsurgical procedures and interventions pre-operatively. The 4D microsurgical simulator can be used by residents and experienced neurosurgeons to achieve micro-accuracy and improve patient safety during interventions to remove neurovascular pathologies like intracranial aneurysm.Read the Venture Kick news... PhD Defense Qingnan Sun Congratulations to Qingnan Sun for his successful PhD thesis defense on 25 June 2020! Qingnan presented his PhD project "AI-based Personalised Blood Glucose Regulation".Details on the research for patient-specific insulin treatment optimization... URODEA is best Health Venture 2020 URODEA has won the 2020 Startup Competition in the category Health & Nutrition. The spinoff of the ARTORG Urogenital Engineering group has developed a novel, reliable and simple solution for underactive bladders and prostate enlargements in collaboration with clinicians from Inselspital: a small battery-powered device that patients can discreetly carry in a pocket and use when going to the toilet to empty the bladder completely. The non-invasive technology avoids pain, bleeding and urinary tract infection associated with current standard treatments, significantly improving the life quality of those affected. URODEA one year after its first Startup-Weekend The ARTORG spinoff URODEA won the Startup-Weekend at the Innovation Bank Biel/Bienne last year. The business knowledge acquired there, served as a first step towards a professional business plan and a successful grant application to the Federal Agency Innosuisse. At the end of the year, the URODEA prototype, a non-invasive device  for patients who are unable to urinate properly, will be tested in clinical trials, says Francesco Clavica in an interview with the Bieler Tagblatt today (in German)... Improved prediction of bone implant stability As part of her dissertation, Marzieh Ovesy from the Musculoskeletal Biomechanics group at ARTORG has developed and validated an explicit finite element method that can more accurately predict the primary stability of dental or orthopedic implants for surgical planning. The computational approach can simulate the insertion and primary stability of a rigid implant in a deformable bone and account for damage at the bone-implant interface, hence paving the way for improved implant design with higher stability.Read the study in Biomechanics… ARTORG participates in EUROoC Lisette van Os, PhD student at the ARTORG Organs-on-Chip Technologies laboratory, is part of the European project EUROoC to develop next-generation technologies that recapitulate human biology on a microscale.
