BIOART final symposium

The EU-funded BIOART project will be hosting its final symposium as part of the ESAO annual conference that will take place in Warsaw, Poland, from 14 to 17 September 2016.

14 September 2016 - 17 September 2016
Warsaw, Poland
Taking place in the context of the ESAO annual conference, the BIOART final event will consist of a specific thematic symposium that will be open to all ESAO participants. The symposium will inform participants of the key findings and results of the project.

The project’s research focus, as well as being a training network for young researchers in the field, has been on improving the ability of artificial and bioartificial kidney devices to remove uremic toxins from blood. To this end, the project has developed two prototypes. A second line of the project’s research has focused on developing prototype bio-reactors ensuring the viability and functionality of liver cells.

The ESAO (European Society for Artificial Organs) annual conference will have the theme of ‘Towards Effective, Seamlessly integrated and Affordable Artificial Organs.’
