A bioprinting platform for the rapid, reliable, controlled and quantifiable patterning of cellular aggregatesand microtissues into macroscale regenerative grafts with programmable architectures (m2M)
ParticipanteEuropean Comission
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...Bioengenharia de dispositivos híbridos hierárquicos com capacidade de auto oxigenação (O2CELLS)
ParticipanteFundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia
A engenharia de tecidos surgiu como uma solução alternativa para fornecer suportes estruturais temporários no local do defeito até que o tecido nativo seja regenerado endogenamente e a função normal seja restaurada. Apesar dos progressos realizados nos últimos 20 anos, ainda não é possível abordar toda a complexidade e propriedades multifunciona...Development of a multifunctional biomaterial patch for buccal delivery of peptide-analogue treatments (BUCCAL-PEP)
ParticipanteEuropean Comission
Oral delivery of peptide macromolecules represents significant challenges for pharmaceutical research, including low bioavailability, dosage control and undesirable food interactions. The intention of the EU-funded BUCCAL-PEP project is to develop a technological platform for oromucosal delivery suitable for a broad range of peptide-ana...Full human-based multi-scale constructs with jammed regenerative pockets for bone engineering. (REBORN)
ParticipanteEuropean Comission
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 protein...Colonizacao 3D de celulas em hidrogeis de origem marinha atraves de padronizacao por microcanais para regeneracao ossea (PROMENADE)
