3D bioprinting construct for the diminishing of bone tumor and progression of bone tissue regeneration: Diagnosis of phenotyping in the cellular model and screening as a therapeutic platform (TissueEng)
European ComissionCoordinator
Bone tissue engineering offers a promising solution for restoring damaged bone tissue. However, current methods face limitations in creating disease models for identifying target genes in tumour recurrence, which hinders the development of preclinical strategies. In this context, the EU-funded TissueEng project aims to use 3D bioprinting to deve...A bioprinting platform for the rapid, reliable, controlled and quantifiable patterning of cellular aggregatesand microtissues into macroscale regenerative grafts with programmable architectures (m2M)
European ComissionPartner
A fundamental limitation with current approaches aiming to bioprint tissues and organs is an inability to generate constructs with truly biomimetic composition and structure, resulting in the development of engineered tissues that cannot execute their specific function in vivo. This is perhaps unsurprising, as many tissues and organs co...A multidisciplinary and circular approach towards the development of innovative, SAFE-by-design, (bio)degRadable multifunctional COATings (SAFERCOAT)
European ComissionPartner
Os polímeros (p.ex., revestimentos) são muito relevantes nas sociedades modernas, no entanto, a reduzida ou nula (bio)degradabilidade e reciclabilidade constituem um problema ambiental sério. Para colmatar esta lacuna, reuniu-se uma equipa multidisciplinar internacional e criou-se o projeto SAFERCOAT. Este projeto visa promover a mobilidade de s...ABSolEU: closing the loop on ABS plastics recycling (ABSolEU)
European ComissionPartner
At least 85% of end-of-life ABS plastic, found in durable products ranging from toys to automotive components and daily-use items such as shavers, ends up in landfills or being incinerated. The ABSolEU project aims to develop and mature a technology for the physical recycling of ABS, providing a clean and safe recyclate that is free of additives...Accelerate the design and Insertion of nonCRM hard Materials for Next generation EXTreme applications (AIM-NEXT)
European ComissionPartner
The AIM-NEXT project arises from the common need of European academy and industry to educate and train the next generation of experts in the field of “Sustainable design of material solutions for engineering applications”. In this regard, the need to Accelerate the design and Insertion of hard Material tools and components, m...All in One: Harvesting of waste heat with solid thermal battery (Heat2Battery)

Materials that convert and store energy are essential for advancing new energy technologies and driving economic growth. Funded by the European Innovation Council, the Heat2Battery project represents a significant breakthrough by integrating heat harvesting and storage into a single device. Unlike traditional thermoelectric generators, ...Alternative routes for basic chemicals production using hydrogen as feedstock (ALCHEMHY )
European ComissionPartner
ALCHEMHY aims to develop a set of innovative electrified processes to produce platform chemicals, particularly ammonia, i.e., a Magnetic-Heated Sorption-Enhanced Reactor (MSER) and Direct ElectroSynthesis of Ammonia (DESA); and methanol, i.e., a Small-Flexible Methanol Reactor (SFMR) and a Plasma-Catalytic Hydrogenation process (PCH). To this en...Better Biobased Polymer Network (B3PO)
European ComissionPartner
The chemical industry faces increasing pressure to reduce emissions and adopt sustainable alternatives. Replacing petroleum-based reactions with new, bio-based pathways will pave the way towards a circular industry. Supported by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the B3PO project aims to develop new methods for the synthesis of polyme...BIOsistema para a reciclagem sustentável de resíduos PLÁSTicos mARinhos (BIOPLASTAR)

O projeto BIOPLASTAR tem como objetivos: (1) criar prova de conceito de um biossistema de reciclagem de (micro)plásticos marinhos; (2) valorizar resíduos de (micro)plástico; (3) divulgar o projeto, assim como resultados e inovação(ões) gerada(s), através de ações de comunicação para o público em geral, agentes económicos e governamentais, cuja m...Building knowledge and tools for the sustainable microbial fighting through sensing and responsive polysaccharide-based materials (NET4MAT)
European ComissionCoordinator
The worldwide pollution triggered by non-biodegradable plastics requires alternative sustainable/eco-friendly materials for all applications. On the other hand, pathogenic microbial resistance is demanding the development of materials that accurately detect and actuate against pathogenic microorganisms. To exploit an approach that answer both th...Chiplet cOOling solutions for Low-consumption emBedded pRocessing AI at Nanoscale (COOLBRAIN)
European ComissionPartner
Embedded systems face challenges with high-performance processors, including the size of cooling solutions and overall energy efficiency.

The EIC-funded COOLBRAIN project aims to enhance chiplet architecture fo...Clean and efficient cooling in vaccine transportation using Rotating Magnetocaloric Effect (MAGCCINE )
European ComissionPartner
Every year 1.5 million lives are lost worldwide due to insufficient access to vaccination while, paradoxically, over 50% of all produced vaccines are wasted, mostly due to ineffective temperature control during storage/transportation. The major challenges of the vaccine cold chain are the evermore strict limitations imposed on their aer...Cr4+:YAG/Polymer nanocomposite as alternative materials for Q-switched lasers: properties, modeling, and applications (ALTER-Q )
