Development and multiparametric monitoring of a microfluidic chip of the blood-brain barrier model
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) protects the brain by controlling exchanges between the blood and nervous tissue. However, current models struggle to accurately reproduce its complexity. This thesis aims at developing and evaluating a microfluidic chip of BBB model incorporating a real-time monitoring system that combines simultaneous optical and electrical measurements. The device will enable the...

Optical intradermal sensing via instrumented microneedles
Cortisol plays a central role in regulating the circadian cycle and in many essential physiological processes such as energy metabolism and immune response. Conventional monitoring of cortisol relies on single blood or saliva samples, which do not accurately reflect the temporal dynamics of its secretion. It is therefore necessary to develop innovative approaches that enable...

Fluctuations microscopy for functional imaging of organoids
Phase contrast microscopy and fluorescence microscopy are the two pillars of modern biological imaging. Phase contrast reveals the morphology of the sample, while fluorescent labeling provides specificity to the process of interest. In both cases, the image is the average value of the measured signal. In this thesis, we propose to focus not on the...

On-line monitoring of bioproduction processes using 3D holographic imaging
The culture of adherent is a promising approach for various bioproduction applications, such as drug manufacturing and delivery, regenerative medicine, and tracking of cellular differentiation. However, the analysis of single cell morphology and behavior without affecting the substrate integrity remains a major challenge. Lens-free holographic imaging is emerging as a promising solution for real-time, non-invasive...

Image sensor-based differential phase contrast imaging
Biopharmaceutical production is booming and consists of using cells to produce molecules of interest. To achieve this, monitoring the culture and the state of the cells is essential. Quantitative phase imaging by holography is a label-free optical method that has already demonstrated its ability to measure the concentration and viability of cultured cells. However, implementing...

Development of an integrated solid state nanopore analysis system
The identification of biological material (DNA, RNA, proteins,…) is generally done thanks to cumbersome lab equipment and/or rely on ultra-specific and proprietary sensitive reagents. We aim to develop a new platform based on the solid-state nanopore technology which could produce label-free results on field. One way to pierce a nanopore in an ultra-fine dielectric membrane...
