Aysu Arslan
Aysu Arslan, PhD, is co-founder and Chief Scientific Officer of BIO INX. Aysu holds bachelor and master's degree in Chemical Engineering from Hacettepe University and a PhD in Chemistry from Ghent University. After obtaining her PhD degree in 2020, she started to work on the spin-off project BIO INX as postdoctoral researcher. Her contribution in the field of biomaterials and tissue engineering started in 2013, where she initially focused on the fabrication of biodegradable polymeric scaffolds for bone regeneration. Since she joined the research lab of Prof. Sandra Van Vlierberghe at Ghent University in 2016, she began to work in the field of polymer synthesis and formulation development for additive manufacturing. In particular, major part of her research focused on the development of synthetic photo-crosslinkable polymers for additive manufacturing applications. During her research at Ghent University, she co-invented an intellectual property, which is foundational to the product portfolio of BIO INX.
