Descripción del proyecto DEENESFRITPL Hacia unos andamiajes tisulares a medida De forma muy parecida a cómo los andamios de la construcción ayudan a construir un edificio de oficinas, los andamiajes tisulares ayudan a que las células creen tejidos funcionales para el tratamiento de enfermedades o lesiones. Diseñados para fomentar el crecimiento celular y la formación de tejidos, los andamiajes tisulares son microscópicos, a menudo nanoestructurados y deben ser biocompatibles. Con el apoyo del programa Marie Skłodowska-Curie, BioSMaLL está integrando un método de impresión 3D novedoso denominado litografía líquida con máscara en disolución (SMaLL, por sus siglas en inglés) con biopolímeros funcionales e ingeniería tisular. SMaLL aprovecha las moléculas fotoactivas para controlar la polimerización y crear nuevas estructuras tridimensionales con distintos dominios químicos y mecánicos. El resultado serán unos mejores implantes tisulares bioinspirados y hechos a medida con diversas aplicaciones biomédicas. Mostrar el objetivo del proyecto Ocultar el objetivo del proyecto Objetivo Three-dimensional (3D) printing in biomedical science has recently advanced the development of tailor-made implants. Designing structural and functional 3D constructs mimetic of both tissues and organs offers a genuine route to personalised implants, improving the patients' quality of life and reducing healthcare costs. While engineers have significantly progressed 3D printing methods, the barriers to progress include the limited variety of printable materials as well as the need for alternative low-cost printing technologies. BioSMaLL aims to address this through combining Solution Mask Liquid Lithography (SMaLL), a recent technology developed at the University of California Santa Barbara (UCSB), with the expertise of the applicant and the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI) in functional biopolymers and tissue engineering to develop bio-active scaffolds. The objectives of this global fellowship will be achieved by adaptation of BioSMaLL for newly designed biopolymers during the outgoing phase at UCSB . In a transfer of knowledge, BioSMaLL will then be established at RCSI and bespoke biocompatible scaffolds produced and validated during the incoming phase. The innovative approach will be facilitated by an interdisciplinary methodology at the interface of polymer chemistry, (bio)materials science, 3D printing and tissue engineering in two world-renowned groups. The career goal of the fellow to embark on a career in emerging biomedical technologies in a start-up company will be facilitated by a dedicated training programme across scientific methods as well as complementary training at UCSB and RCSI covering leadership, project management and commercialisation in addition to meetings with laboratory and management staff of the start-up company SurgaColl. The partners have a proven track record in training future leaders in materials science and healthcare aiming to make a difference and establish new technologies and innovative processes in Europe and beyond.
