Research

Zweistein
Innovation Lab

The student-led biomedical research initiative of ACESO. Focused on early-stage, exploratory research rather than clinical deployment or commercialization. A research and educational effort, not a clinical laboratory.

Focus

Neonatal life-support systems.

We study premature infant care and extracorporeal life-support, including neonatal ECMO and artificial placenta platforms. Roughly 1 in 10 babies worldwide are born prematurely, and preterm birth complications are a leading cause of death in children under five.
