TT.VI - Technical Multi-Track with Parallel SYMPOSIA
Innovative materials for biomedical applications
Co-organized with University of Reggio Calabria Chairs: Giuliana FAGGIO & Giacomo MESSINA, University of Reggio Calabria and Maria Penelope DE SANTO, University of Reggio Calabria and CNR-Nanotec
In the field of biomedical applications, innovative materials play a pivotal role in advancing various sectors, including tissue engineering, drug delivery, and diagnostic tools. Graphene and carbon-based materials, hydrogels, liquid crystals, biodegradable polymers and nanofibres are among the key materials offering new opportunities for healthcare innovation. The symposium will bring together researchers working in the field of nanomaterials and nanotechnologies for biomedical applications to share their knowledge and discuss new perspectives in the field. The symposium topics will cover different areas where innovative materials have found application in the biomedical and healthcare sectors. The symposium is funded by the project CALabria HUB per Ricerca Innovativa ed Avanzata (CAL.HUB.RIA) funded by Piano Operativo Salute - Traiettoria 4 “Biotecnologie, Bioinformatica e Sviluppo Farmaceutico”.
Supported by: Fondo per lo Sviliuppo e la Coesione and Ministero della Salute
