Spread the word! Nest Friday we are glad to present to all those who are part of the IBEC community the IBEC FASTER FUTURE programme, an initiative to accelerate our research in a collaborative way together with patients’ associations and hospitals. Everyone can be involved and we will comment the different ways to contribute to ... Read more

Immunomodulatory Biomaterials for Limb Salvage Kara Spiller, School of Biomedical Engineering, Science, and Health Systems, Drexel University Diabetes and peripheral arterial disease affect hundreds of millions of people worldwide. Patients with these conditions frequently develop chronic wounds on the lower limbs that lead to amputation, with a 5-year mortality rate as high as 77%. Macrophages, ... Read more

Dynamic Systems Based on Elastin-Like Recombinamers Carlos Rodríguez Cabello, Bioforge Lab, University of Valladolid CIBER-BBN The use of recombinant technology in the production of macromolecule-based advanced biomaterials has caused a breakthrough increase in achievable degree of complexity and control on the molecular designs and compositions. Those recombinant macromolecules of polpeptide nature are called recombinamers. They ... Read more

Mechanical control of cell division Martijn Gloerich, UMC Utrecth, Center for Molecular Medicine, Molecular Cancer Research During development and adult tissue homeostasis, cellular behavior is controlled by signals that cells receive from their local environment. This is not limited to biochemical signals, as cell behavior can be instructed by mechanical forces exerted by neighbouring cells ... Read more
