A study led by the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) and the CIBER’s Bioengineering, Biomaterials and Nanomedicine (CIBER-BBN) describes a method that mimics the physiological response to smell. The system makes it possible to discriminate between odours with very similar characteristics based on the binding interaction with the receptor, which causes a change in the capacitive response of the receptor. The application of this methodology opens the door to the development of highly selective olfactory biosensors.

Critical bone defects resulting from trauma, tumor resection, or congenital conditions present significant challenges in medical treatment due to high rates of graft failure caused by inadequate blood supply. To address this issue, researchers at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia have developed novel 3D printed scaffolds made from polylactic acid and calcium phosphate. These innovative scaffolds promote blood vessel formation, ensuring better healing and regeneration of bone tissue.

This spin-off from the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia has developed a non-invasive technology that analyses the metabolism of human embryos to select the most suitable ones for implantation. This innovation promises to significantly reduce the time and number of treatment cycles required for in vitro fertilisation. The success of LUMIRIS’ technology has led to a new round of investment of €1.5 million, bringing the total to €6 million since the company was founded in 2023.
