Welcome to Linnaeus University! A place for knowledge, ideas and development. For growth potential and a belief in the future. In Småland and in the world.

Job description

The overall aim of our research is to characterise how biomaterials perform in a biological system, with focus on the intravascular instant immune activation and thrombotic response (i.e. thromboinflammation). A biomaterial is per definition a material introduced to a biological system as a treatment with the aim of maintaining or improving a biological function. Examples of biomaterials are implants, extracorporeal circulation and nanoparticle drug delivery systems. Treatment using biomaterials can be associated with adverse effects. Central components in the acute intravascular reactions are the complement and coagulation cascades, in interplay with blood cells and the endothelium.
