Sister Projects

GreenNanoBone
GreenNanoBone is an EU-funded research project focused on the prevention and treatment of medication‑related osteonecrosis of the jaw, a serious side effect often associated with bisphosphonate therapies in cancer patients.
The project develops an innovative, biocompatible and antimicrobial hydrogel derived from plant-based waste from the food industry, promoting sustainability while advancing regenerative medicine solutions.

HYDROHEAL
HYDROHEAL aims to create an injectable hydrogel that supports the body’s natural healing processes, enables targeted drug delivery, and helps reduce the risk of infection.
Designed to require minimal surgical intervention, the solution has strong potential for clinical translation and impact in wound care and regenerative therapies.

INJECTHEAL
INJECTHEAL focuses on the development of a multifunctional, self-healing injectable hydrogel for the treatment of deep cavity chronic wounds.
By combining advanced biomaterials and regenerative approaches, the project seeks to enhance tissue regeneration and improve healing outcomes in complex wounds.

NanoBeat
The project explores a novel nanomaterial-based approach designed to help restore normal electrical conduction in the heart using a minimally invasive procedure, without the need for permanent implanted devices.
By supporting the recovery of heart tissue functionality, NanoBeat aims to open new pathways in cardiac regenerative therapies.
Other collaborations

LUMINATE
LUMINATE addresses the challenge of restoring knee function after traumatic injuries by developing innovative regenerative therapies for cartilage and bone repair.
The project integrates advanced bioprinting technologies, biomaterials, and clinical expertise to enable in situ tissue regeneration, with the goal of reducing pain, enhancing mobility, and delaying or avoiding knee replacement surgery.

REBORN
REBORN is an EU research project dedicated to improving recovery after heart damage caused by myocardial infarction.
By developing smart and multifunctional biomaterials, the project seeks to support cardiac tissue regeneration and reduce the formation of scar tissue that can lead to heart failure.
REBORN aims to advance innovative therapeutic strategies that help restore heart function and improve long-term patient outcomes.

TENTACLE
TENTACLE focuses on the development of innovative, minimally invasive solutions for the treatment of colorectal diseases.
The project combines advanced biomaterials and next-generation bioprinting technologies to promote tissue regeneration directly inside the body, reducing the need for highly invasive surgical procedures.
Through a patient‑centred approach, TENTACLE aims to improve recovery and quality of life for individuals with complex colorectal conditions.
