SUMMARY:IBEC Seminar: Carlos Rodríguez Cabello
DESCRIPTION:Dynamic Systems Based on Elastin-Like Recombinamers\nCarlos Rodríguez Cabello\, Bioforge Lab\, University of Valladolid CIBER-BBN \nThe 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 are produced from a purely synthetic gene\, in which the amino-acid sequence is not restricted to those found in naturally occurring proteins and it is dictated only by engineering design parameters. The high degree of complexity and control of the recombinamer compositions permit to reach unmatched levels of functionality in the materials produced by this way and on the systems based on them. \nThe development of functionality in such systems comes by to different ways. In one hand\, these materials can display direct functionality. Such functionality is based on the presence in their composition of functional epitopes\, typically inspired by functional epitopes found in natural proteins. The other source of functionality is the holistic functionality that emerges by the precise combination and interactions of direct functions in a precise and well designed macromolecular composition. This holistic function is particularly evident in system with a dynamic nature; systems that rearrange and respond to changes in their environment. \nExamples of such dynamic systems will be presented. The examples will expand from complex 3D structures for regenerative medicine and tissue engineering that are able to incorporate a designed program of degradation and time evolution\, to more fundamental matters such as the hierarchical spontaneous development of morphology and macroscopical shapes in natural and artificial systems. \nDr. Rodríguez-Cabello is a full professor at the Dept. of Condensed Matter Physics of the University of Valladolid (UVa) Spain. During his career he has been teaching courses related to physics of polymers and biomaterials science in both undergraduate and graduate levels. In 1997\, he founded BIOFORGE in the UVa\, which nowadays is an internationally recognized and word leading group in the field of recombinamers. His current research interests include the development of biofunctional\, smart and customized protein polymers towards obtaining advanced biomedical devices.

SUMMARY:SEMINAR Series in Development\, Regeneration and Disease
DESCRIPTION:“Engineering human pluripotent stem cells for organoid applications in regenerative medicine”\nNuria Montserrat\nCatalan Institution for Research and Advanced Studies (ICREA)\, Barcelona\, Spain.\nPluripotency for Organ Regeneration\, Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC)\, The Barcelona Institute of Technology (BIST)\, Barcelona\, Spain.\nCentro de Investigación Biomédica en Red en Bioingeniería\, Biomateriales y Nanomedicina\, Madrid\, Spain.\nABSTRACT \nThe generation of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) derived organoids is one of the biggest scientific advances in regenerative medicine. Recently\, we have demonstrated that lengthening the time that hPSCs are exposed to a threedimensional microenvironment in the presence of defined renal inductive signals we are able to generate kidney organoids that transcriptomically match secondtrimester human fetal kidneys. Furthermore\, we have recently developed a transplantation method that utilizes the chick chorioallantoic membrane to emulate a soft in vivo microenvironment further sustaining the growth and differentiation of implanted kidney organoids\, as well as providing a vascular component. \nIn order to promote the efficient generation of nephron-like structures we have also mimicked the stiffness of the in ovo chorioallantoic membrane microenvironment in vitro by fabricating compliant hydrogels. This approach showed that by mirroring both biochemical and mechanical cues during organoid generation we are able to boost renal commitment and nephron differentiation. We will also discuss recent findings on the application of different bioengineering strategies (i.e.\, including 3D biopriting and tissue engineering) for kidney organoid generation\, as well as the definition of culture conditions mimicking renal disease. Furthermore\, we will discuss how through the use of CRISPR/Cas9 we are able to introduce mutations related to kidney developmental diseases exploiting kidney organoid technology.

SUMMARY:IBEC Seminar: Kara Spiller
DESCRIPTION:Immunomodulatory Biomaterials for Limb Salvage\nKara Spiller\, School of Biomedical Engineering\, Science\, and Health Systems\, Drexel University \nDiabetes 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\, the primary cell of the innate immune system\, are critical regulators of angiogenesis and wound healing. Their dysfunction is strongly implicated in arterial dysfunction\, limb ischemia\, and poorly healing chronic wounds. The goal of the Biomaterials and Regenerative Medicine Laboratory at Drexel University is to understand the mechanisms by which macrophages orchestrate successful angiogenesis and tissue regeneration and to develop novel biomaterial strategies that apply these principles to pathological situations\, in order to ultimately prevent limb amputation. This talk will focus on the effects of temporal changes in macrophage phenotype on angiogenesis\, the design of biomaterials and drug delivery systems to modulate macrophage phenotype for enhanced angiogenesis\, and the development of macrophage phenotype-related biomarkers to assist in clinical decision making for a personalized medicine approach to wound care. \nDr. Kara Spiller is an Associate Professor in Drexel University’s School of Biomedical Engineering\, Science\, and Health Systems. Her research interests include the role of immune cells in tissue regeneration\, the design of immunomodulatory biomaterials\, and international engineering education. Her research is funded by the NIH\, the NSF\, and private foundations. Her awards include a Fulbright fellowship\, the NSF CAREER award\, and the United States nomination for the ASPIRE prize.

SUMMARY:PhD Discussions Sessions: Ariadna Marin and Ignasi Casanellas
DESCRIPTION:Linking epithelial size\, tension and pressure in curved epithelial monolayers\nAriadna Marin\, Integrative Cell and Tissue Dynamics\nEpithelia are thin cellular layers that act as mechanical and biochemical barriers. They are dynamic tissues that present strong intercellular junctions needed to maintain their integrity while growing and regenerating. During embryogenesis\, they fold progressively and give rise to highly reproducible 3D shapes that guide the shape and positioning of organs. \nThe way pressure and tension depend on the size of 3D epithelial structures can help us understand how epithelia fold into determined shapes and are able to maintain them even under the continuous remodelling due to cell division. In this project we generate simple fluid-filled MDCK 3D monolayers to study the link between epithelial size\, luminal pressure and intercellular tension. \nNanoscale surface adhesiveness continually modulates intercellular communication in cartilage development\nIgnasi Casanellas\, Nanobioengineering\nNanoscale inputs of the extracellular matrix (ECM) affect cell behavior\, including differentiation. We have developed a method for the simple production of large-scale substrates functionalized with cell-adhesive moieties of arginine-glycine-aspartate (RGD) dendrimers\, with uneven local densities at the nanoscale. \nIn the first stages of cartilage formation\, mesenchymal stem cells gather together\, forming condensates with an extensive gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) network. The establishment of this communication network is imperative for the development of healthy cartilage tissue. We have used nanopatterned substrates to locally control cell-substrate adherence during mesenchymal condensation\, a prevalent morphogenetic transition\, and promote stem cell differentiation towards chondrogenesis. We here demonstrate that local ligand density defines gap junctional protein Cx43 network architecture and GJ functionality. \nBy a condensate transplantation assay\, we then reveal that differentiating stem cells are sensitive to evolving substrate inputs in a continuous feedback mode after condensation. The renewal of optimal ligand conditions led to a revamp of Cx43 expression. \nThis knowledge provides new insight into cell-matrix nanoscale interactions during morphogenesis. It is relevant for the design of nanopatterned platforms for cell-based regenerative therapies of mesenchymal tissues such as cartilage.

SUMMARY:2nd IBEC-ICMS Joint Symposium
DESCRIPTION:The event is in the framework of an alliance between the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) and the Institute for Complex Molecular Systems (ICMS)\, a research institute of the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e).\n \nAs part of IBEC Strategic Plan 2018-2020\, It’s planned that the similarities and complementary aspects of both IBEC and ICMS – their multidisciplinarity\, active missions to connect with industry and clinicians\, and strong research in nano\, materials\, molecular devices\, supramolecular systems and regenerative medicine – may form the basis of an institutional-level alliance to share people\, resources and knowledge. \nThe event aims to identify synergies and potential for collaboration between IBEC groups and the researchers of ICMS. It is the 2nd edition of a series of joint symposiums that started in Eindhoven on September 2018.  During that symposium many natural connections initiated for the benefit of both our organizations. We therefore feel that there are excellent opportunities to further strengthen the ties between our institutes. Therefore\, we are organizing a number of scientific exchanges and working on the identification of common research interests. \nThis second ICMS-IBEC Symposium will be a great opportunity to foster collaborations\, strengthen the existing ones\, and an opportunity for young researchers involved in the exchange program to present their activities in the partner organization. \nIf you would like to attend\, please go to the symposium website and register (see link below). It is important to register so we can organize the room\, poster stands and catering accordingly. It takes only 20 seconds. You can also register even if you do not bring a poster along. \nDeadline for registration: 8th July 17h. \nWEBSITE: https://events.ibecbarcelona.eu/ibec-icms/ \n

Therefore\, we are organizing a number of scientific exchanges and working on the identification of common research interests. \nThis second ICMS-IBEC Symposium will be a great opportunity to foster collaborations\, strengthen the existing ones\, and an opportunity for young researchers involved in the exchange program to present their activities in the partner organization. \nIf you would like to attend\, please go to the symposium website and register (see link below). It is important to register so we can organize the room\, poster stands and catering accordingly. It takes only 20 seconds. You can also register even if you do not bring a poster along. \nDeadline for registration: 8th July 17h. \nWEBSITE: https://events.ibecbarcelona.eu/ibec-icms/ \n

SUMMARY:IBEC Seminar: Nicolas Minc
DESCRIPTION:Division positioning in early embryos from mechanisms to function\nNicolas Minc\, Insitut Jacques Monod\, Paris\, France \nNicolas Minc lab is located at the Institut Jacques Monod in Paris\, and studies general problems of cell morphogenesis\, ranging from the control of cell growth and shapes in single cells\, to cell division in multicellular embryos. One hallmark of the lab is to combine quantitative imaging\, biophysics methods and modelling to address fundamental questions in cell and developmental biology.
