![]() ![]() We could clearly compare the amount of DNA damage in both models.’ NWO then provided a grant for a research project with Leiden University Medical Center and Holland Proton Therapy Center to further assess how patient-derived deadly brain tumour 3D models respond to a potential therapy using proton radiation. ![]() ‘It was an incredible revelation when, in May 2021, a Master’s student demonstrated how brain cancer cells in 3D respond differently to proton radiation therapy than in a 2D culture. Recently, Accardo launched also another research line on the development of 3D biomimetic scaffolds for the study of glioblastoma, the most lethal brain cancer, under proton radiotherapy. It will also open up the road towards research into therapy.’ ‘If we observe that neuronal structures grown in our 3D microenvironments behave differently in someone with autism, that will help with diagnosis. ![]() Thanks to a grant from the Dutch Research Council (NWO), Accardo will now be able to work with scientists from Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam on the culture of stem cells from people with and without autism spectrum disorders. Accardo has continued working on his finding in Delft since 2019: in the Faculty of Mechanical, Maritime and Materials Engineering (3mE), he now has his own group of researchers in the Precision and Microsystems Engineering (PME) department working to develop his invention for some amazing applications. ![]()
