Unite! Widening Networking Workshops @ Health & Biotech Research Community
On 7 April, from 12:30pm until 5:30 pm, the workshop Health & Biotech – Integrated Health Technologies: Challenges and Future Directions of Tissue Engineering will taktake place as part of the UNITE!Widening project’s cycle of Networking Workshops.
The event will be held at TTC@ULisboa in a hybrid format and will bring together academia and industry specialists to debate how technological advances are transforming tissue engineering and translational biomedical research.
Participants of both workshops (Health & Biotech, and Digital & Autonomous Technologies) will be invited to attend a shared networking lunch at 12:30pm, providing an informal moment for contact between researchers, enterprises, and other stakeholders.
The afternoon thematic session, starting at 2pm will address:
- Bioreactors as technological platforms for tissue modelling
- Bioactive elastomeric composites for regeneration
- Muscle-on-chip systems for therapy development
- Humanly relevant barrier models for microbiome research
The programme will include:
- Presentations by European and national experts
- Pitch sessions by companies and researchers
- AAVANZ training session on Horizon Europe funding opportunities for international R&D projects in Health
- Open discussion and networking. The networking lunch will include the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding for the creation of an Open Innovation Community.
