Bionics is a very established medical discipline where engineering spouses the life sciences, creating exquisite combinations. With the help of nanoscience and nanotechnology, we can now push such an effort down to the molecular level. In our group, we fabricate synthetic surrogates of trafficking vesicles, viruses and, one day perhaps, even a whole cell. Such\u00a0<strong>molecular bionic<\/strong>\u00a0units offer more efficient solutions to\u00a0<strong>deliver drugs<\/strong>, to\u00a0<strong>probe life<\/strong>\u00a0at the nanoscale, and to act as a model to\u00a0<strong>understand biological complexity<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Our efforts are intrinsically multidisciplinary, and we mix chemistry, physics and biology in all we do. We typically start studying biological complexity, with a strong focus on transport, trafficking and multivalent interactions (<strong>Physical Biology<\/strong>). To help this, we develop new tools to look at biological systems in four dimensions capturing life&#8217;s spatiotemporal patterns (<strong>Microscopy<\/strong>). We thus apply a constructionist approach where we mimic biological complexity in the form of design principles such as compartmentalisation, multivalency and taxis, to produce functional units from simple building blocks and their interactions (<strong>Molecular Engineering<\/strong>).\u200b Finally, we apply the resulting constructs to tackle disorders such as cancer, neurodegeneration, inflammation, and infections (<strong>Nanomedicine<\/strong>).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Today, I start introducing our research activities giving a few examples of each segment, to eventually focus my seminar on one of the latest and most exciting developments, our understanding of multivalent interaction and how these control crucial biological processes, such as cellular selectivity and trafficking.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The seminar will take place online at the <a href=\"https:\/\/global.gotomeeting.com\/join\/495569957\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">GoToMeeting Platform<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Know more about Giuseppe Battaglia&#8217;s research <a href=\"https:\/\/ibecbarcelona.eu\/molecular-bionics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bionics at the molecular level: copying Nature to control Nature Giuseppe Battaglia , IBEC A very established approach in medicine involves the replacement of organs or other malfunctioning body parts &#8230; <a title=\"Online IBEC Seminar: Giuseppe Battaglia\" class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/ibecbarcelona.eu\/es\/event\/online-ibec-seminar-giuseppe-battaglia\/\" aria-label=\"More on Online IBEC Seminar: Giuseppe Battaglia\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_tribe_events_status":"","_tribe_events_status_reason":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[],"tribe_events_cat":[353],"class_list":["post-73834","tribe_events","type-tribe_events","status-publish","hentry","tribe_events_cat-ibec-seminar-es","cat_ibec-seminar-es"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Online IBEC Seminar: Giuseppe Battaglia - Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/ibecbarcelona.eu\/es\/event\/online-ibec-seminar-giuseppe-battaglia\/?lang=ca\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"es_ES\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Online IBEC Seminar: Giuseppe Battaglia - Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Bionics at the molecular level: copying Nature to control Nature Giuseppe Battaglia , IBEC A very established approach in medicine involves the replacement of organs or other malfunctioning body parts ...
