The Health Engineers - Conversations with Vasilis Ntziachristos, Janna Nawroth, and Nimmi Ramanujam.

Helmholtz Pioneer Campus researchers Vasilis Ntziachristos and Janna Nawroth represent complementary branches of bioengineering: Nawroth mines basic research on the structure & function of organisms to develop novel technology; Ntziachristos applies his engineering know-how and approaches to create new solutions for biomedical problems. We also spoke with Duke University’s Nimmi Ramanujam about bringing bioengineering advances to bear on the needs of marginalized or economically disadvantaged communities. All three researchers gave their perspectives on recruiting and training the next generation of bioengineers.
