Jurjen Tel is an Associate Professor at the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), leading the Immunoengineering research group. He focuses on developing single-cell technologies to study immune dynamics for therapies in cancer, autoimmune diseases, and regenerative medicine.
- BSc: Medical Microbiology, NHL University of Applied Sciences (2005)
- MSc: Medical Biology, University of Groningen (2007)
- PhD: Tumor Immunology, Radboudumc Nijmegen (2013)
His research combines systems immunology and microfluidics to decode cellular heterogeneity, particularly in dendritic cells, NK cells, and macrophages. He pioneers 'minimal environments' using droplet-based systems and collaborates with Prof. Jan van Hest on artificial immunotherapy.
Recent articles highlight his work on quorum sensing in immune responses, microfluidic diagnostics for cancer, and temporal-spatial signaling in autoimmune diseases. These span biomedical engineering, immunology, and computational biology.
- Awards: ERC Starting Grant (2018), NWO-Veni Grant (2013)
He has secured grants for dendritic cell heterogeneity and applied microfluidics projects, mentoring 15 supervised works. His lab designs single-cell toolboxes for immunotherapy advancement.
