Mario Rothbauer,
Principle Investigator
Mario Rothbauer received an MSc. in Biomedical & Tissue Engineering at the University of Applied Sciences Technikum Wien (Vienna, Austria) in 2001 and completed his doctorate in food science and biotechnology in 2015 at the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences (BOKU; Vienna, Austria). At the AIT Austrian Institute of Technology (Vienna, Austria) he worked on the development of lab-on-a-chip systems for cell-based applications that combine cell biology, nanobiotechnology, biosensors and materials science with state-of-the-art microfabrication technologies. As Post-Doc at the CellChipGroup of the Vienna University of Technology (Vienna, Austria) he worked on human barrier-, organ- and multi-organ-on-a-chip as well as human disease models for toxicological and pharmaceutical research with the overall aim to create valid alternatives to animal tests. Since 2019, as PI he develops microphysiological systems for musculoskeletal diseases at the Karl Chiari Lab for Orthopaedic Biology at the Department of Orthopedics and Trauma Surgery of the Medical University of Vienna (Vienna, Austria) with a thematic focus on rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis.
