Project description
Bio-hybrid materials for bioprinting and tumour-targeted therapies
Living cellular structures address real-world challenges in medicine and biotechnology, including bioprinting, organoid development, and tumour-targeted therapies. The EIC-funded Bio-HhOST project will develop bio-hybrid materials that integrate living and artificial cells, enabling them to communicate and influence each other’s growth and function. This initiative aligns with the EIC’s Engineered Living Materials (ELMs) initiative, positioning Bio-HhOST as a key collaborator within the ELMs portfolio. By participating in governing bodies and working groups, the project will contribute to updating the portfolio’s objectives and expanding into areas such as bioprinting, organoid development, and tumour-targeted therapies. It will also leverage results from the EIC Pathfinder project to navigate commercialisation pathways and advance innovative research.
Objective
The Bio-HhOST project (bio-hybrid hierarchical organoid-synthetic tissue) deals with the creation of bio-hybrid materials that comprise living & artificial cells, in dynamic communication, such that artificial cells may influence the proliferation, differentiation and function of living cells. In this way the project fits perfectly into the EIC Engineered Living Materials (ELMs) Initiative. This makes Bio-HhOST the ideal candidate to engage with the ELMs portfolio reinforcing its coordination and management through the collaboration in reaching the EMLs portfolio objectives by an active involvement in its main governing body and Working Groups. Bio-HhOST will also help re-evaluate and update the objectives of the Portfolio by widening the fields of bio-printing, organoid development and tumor targeted therapies. We are applying to enter this Initiative to exploit our EIC Pathfinder project results, navigate pathways to commercialization, and impact the future of innovative reseaThe Bio-HhOST project (bio-hybrid hierarchical organoid-synthetic tissue) deals with the creation of bio-hybrid materials that comprise living & artificial cells, in dynamic communication, such that artificial cells may influence the proliferation, differentiation and function of living cells.

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
