CuraBone Project, Kick-off Meeting
![](/icons/wire.jpg)
CuraBone aims to integrate and to extend numerical simulation technologies based on image analysis to achieve a predictive methodology, to optimise patient-specific treatment of bone injuries and rehabilitation therapies. It will focus on the establishment of a currently non-existent, but essential multi-validation platform at different scale levels for the creation of bone models.
Spain, Belgium and Denmark participate in this European project that it will not only develop patient-specific musculoskeletal modelling based on FEA and bone adaptive algorithms, but will also bring a step-forward to validate these models at different scales together with supervision of different orthopaedic hospitals expert on bone injuries. This step forward in bone healing research serves CuraBone team to develop a European Industrial Doctorate (EID) that allows five young researchers to work together with professionals from universities, companies and hospitals, and achieved a PhD.
