Boosting Bioprinting Technology and Applications in Health in the EuroACE Region (BioimpACE)

Objectives: 3D printing is revolutionised in the health sector and this project seeks to promote scientific knowledge of Bioprinting techniques with application to health, focusing the innovative initiatives of R & D & I agents on specific applications of personalised and regenerative medicine. It also aims to enhance multidisciplinary collaboration and to know the needs of the territory for the generation of results applicable in the region (cross-border cooperation). The aim is also to promote knowledge and use of Bioprinting in Health, with the main objective of placing R & D & I centres and groups in the EuroACE region at the highest level of European excellence, while introducing this technology to other public and private sector actors in the region. Activities: 1 Improvement of prostheses for regenerative medicine by means of bioprinting. 2 Applications of Bioprinting in the release and testing of chemicals and drugs. 3 Optimisation of biopress technologies. 4 Network for the promotion of Bioprinting in the EuroACE region. 5 Management and Coordination. 6 Communication. Results: The products and results obtained will be made available to the participating beneficiaries, collaborating entities and other stakeholders, so that the research community and potential users of Bioprinting techniques are estimated at around 500 professionals from different fields (engineers, investors, healthcare professionals, entrepreneurs/entrepreneurs). In the long term, the results of this project could have an even greater impact on the Society, by improving the treatment of patients with the personalisation of therapies.
