Researchers at the Soft Robotics Lab at ETH Zurich in collaboration with the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia have developed a biohybrid system that mimics the biological interface between bones and muscles, enabling improved force transmission. This technology could be applied not only in robotics but also in the development of medical implants.
Un vídeo hecho en Barcelona documenta por primera vez en un modelo artificial de matriz la implantación, momento crítico y gran desconocido del embarazo humano.
Carlos Moreno Yruela, who is currently a researcher at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, Switzerland, was selected in the ERC Starting Grants call to develop the CHEMTUBIO project at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC). The project will study the chemistry of enzymes that erase microtubule modifications. These enzymes are essential for the functioning of our cells and have shown great promise as potential therapeutic targets for treating cancer, heart disease and neurological disorders.
The Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC), a CERCA centre, is pleased to announce that Dr Teresa Sanchis, Head of Strategy at IBEC, has been appointed Director General of Research at the Department of Research and Universities of the Government of Catalonia. This appointment recognises her scientific career and commitment to research management.
Il momento clou della gestazione è stato catturato per la prima volta da alcuni ricercatori dell’Istituto di Bioingegneria della Catalogna. La nuova tecnica potrebbe aiutare gli scienziati a scoprire come prevenire gli aborti spontanei
Imagens inéditas revelam como embriões humanos invadem o tecido uterino e explica causa comum de infertilidade
Investigadores españoles crean un sistema en el laboratorio que simula las capas externas del útero en 3D. “Ayudará a mejorar la tasa de fecundación in vitro”.
Scientists at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia in Barcelona have recorded footage of a key stage of human development in real time, and in 3D, for the first time. In doing so, they witnessed a surprisingly invasive event that they hope could provide insights that may one day help treat infertility.
For the first time, scientists have recorded a human embryo implanting into a womb in real time, a feat the researchers hope will lead to new ways to treat infertility and prevent miscarriages.
