European ComissionPartner
Understanding structure and behaviour at the nanoscale provides valuable insight and the opportunity for control in application areas like biomedicine, biophysics and biomaterials. Measuring individual nanoscale properties with different instruments is challenging, slow and expensive. Understanding their interactions is even more difficult. Corr...Engineered Conductive Proteins for Bioelectronics (E-PROT)
European ComissionPartner
Proteins demonstrate exceptional structural and electrical conduction properties for designing functional materials. The goal of the EU-funded e-Prot project is to rationally design efficient conductive protein systems and produce protein-based conductive structures and materials. This breakthrough relies on a multidisciplinary scientific approa...Exploring devitalized MSCs fibres as immunomodulatory devices for wound regeneration through (i) direct promotion of healing or (ii) enabling of allograft transplantation free of systemic immunosuppression (LAZARUS)
Other InternationalCoordinator
The project aims at exploring MSCs as constituents of off-the-shelf easy-to-handle immunomodulatory biomaterials. The project focuses on using these materials to treat difficult-to-heal wounds, which may be chronic, or have proneness to become chronic if not properly treated.Two treatment approaches will be explored using devitalized MSC aggrega...FAIST - Fábrica Ágil, inteligente, Sustentável e Tecnologica (FAIST)
