Researching the behavior of cancer cells and T lymphocytes, as well as the growth of fungi.

Description

Packed with scientific payloads from Wrocław University of Science and Technology and three other Polish academic institutions.
Researching the behavior of cancer cells and T lymphocytes, as well as the growth of fungi. Miniature laboratory based on MEMS (Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems) technology, which combines micromechanical and microelectronic elements. The CubeSat nanosatellite, which the company will provide, will be equipped with miniaturized lab-on-chip instruments

Results

Unfortunately, due to problems with communication and power supply, the planned biological experiments could not be carried out.
