Lab Mission

The REISSUE Laboratory focuses on the integration of biorobotics and biofabrication technologies for advanced tissue regeneration. It supports research on standardized methods for producing and manipulating complex, heterotypic human tissue analogues using bioprinting. A key feature is the development of robotic-assisted systems for in situ delivery of engineered microtissues. The lab complements existing cell and tissue culture facilities and will host a dedicated bioprinting area equipped with bioreactors and 3D robotic-assisted bioprinters.

Devices 

STELLARIS Confocal Microscope Platform

The STELLARIS confocal system is an advanced imaging platform designed for high-resolution, multi-dimensional visualization of biological samples. In bioengineering, it enables detailed analysis of 3D tissue constructs, biomaterials, and live-cell dynamics. Equipped with sensitive photon detectors and tunable white light lasers, STELLARIS allows precise spectral imaging, fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM), and deep tissue observation—ideal for studying cell–matrix interactions, tissue remodeling, and real-time biological processes in engineered systems.
