Full human-based multi-scale constructs with jammed regenerative pockets for bone engineering (REBORN)
European ComissionCoordinator
Engineered bone tissue has many advantages over natural bone grafts, including safety and limitless supply. However, current engineering methods cannot generate large vascularised grafts capable of in vivo integration and remodelling. To address this problem, the EU-funded REBORN project proposes to combine biomaterials based on proteins obtaine...Funcionalização in situ de elétrodos em eletrolisadores industriais para produção de hidrogénio verde (HYDROWIN)
Other NationalCoordinator
O HydroWIN surge no âmbito da produção de hidrogénio verde através da eletrólise alcalina da água pela funcionalização in situ de elétrodos, de forma a reforçar a economia de hidrogénio, que se encontra, ainda, em fase inicial em Portugal. A produção de H2 verde irá desempenhar um papel crucial na Região Centro de Portugal continental nos próxim...GREEN-X: Advancing Sustainable Polymer Innovation through Circular Feedstocks, Greener Materials, and Industrial Collaboration (GREEN-X)
European ComissionCoordinator
Plastics and coatings rely on fossil-based resources. At the same time, industries are under pressure to cut waste and recycle more effectively. Supported by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the GREEN-X project brings together top universities and companies to create greener pathways in polymer chemistry. Their aim is to convert alt...High-Performance Ceramic Boards, Sustainably Crafted (CERBOARD)

High-tech sustainable biofabrication for advancing personalized healthcare (LEGO)
Fundação para a Ciência e a TecnologiaCoordinator
This research proposal aims to engineer and validate, for the first time, a simple, sustainable, and highly translational methodology for obtaining extracellular matrix-rich tissue-specific bioinks. Patient's own cells will be the main building blocks for the development of realistic microtissues, which will be used to engineer a h...Hydrophobic Eutectic Solvents for Tailored Metal Separation and Recycling (DESignSX)
European ComissionCoordinator
Sustainable metallurgy is environmentally sound and allows reclaiming metal value from end-of-life devices, thereby closing the resource loop. However, the separation of lanthanides (Ln) poses challenges due to their subtle property variations, which affect their recycling economics despite growing demand. In this context, the ERC-funded DESignS...ILIMITED first-ever Ionic LIquid sorbent Methanol synthesis In order To Enable over 80% yielD (ILIMITED)
European ComissionPartner
CO2 emissions remain a challenge, particularly from decentralised sources like wastewater treatment plants. In this context, the EU-funded ILIMITED project aims to tackle this issue by introducing a groundbreaking method for converting CO2 into methanol, an energy-dense fuel. Utilising ionic liquid sorbents, ILIMITED’s system achieves over 80 % ...Iluminação inteligente centrada no ser humano e comunicações através da Internet das coisas (SLICIoT)

Innovative Technologies to Enhance the Consumption Experience of Seaweeds (ITSEE)
Industry NationalPartner
ITSEE’s main goal is to develop a seaweed food product, i.e., a new seaweed ingredient (NewSI), that is high in protein and appealing, through the development of processing strategies that will allow the modification/removal of the unpleasant organoleptic properties that hamper their acceptability. This product is meant for direct consumption an...Innovative tools to treat and model complex cancer environments (TheraTools)
European ComissionPartner
Funded by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the TheraTools project will create a multidisciplinary research and training network to focus on the technological development of scientific tools to study malignant tumours localised beyond a biological barrier, as in the case of brain tumours. The TheraTools consortium will provide high-q...Investigação e desenvolvimento de novos produtos de porcelana fina de tableware com desempenhos disruptivos em mitigação de impactos ambientais adversos (ePORCEL)
