Dr. Eng. Magdalena Flont is an Assistant Professor at the Centre for Advanced Materials and Technologies (CEZAMAT) at the Warsaw University of Technology. Her research focuses on Organ-on-a-Chip (OoC) technologies, microfluidic systems, and 3D cell culture models for studying cancer biology and the pathomechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases.
Her work involves the development of complex, multilayer and multi-organ microfluidic platforms for modeling both pathological and physiological conditions. This includes modeling processes associated with cancer progression, such as tumor growth, metastasis, and treatment response, as well as peripheral nervous system neuropathies, including myelination and demyelination.
She is the author of numerous publications in peer-reviewed scientific journals and a co-inventor of patented microfluidic systems for 3D cell culture and cancer modeling.
