Nanomedicine Programme
Coordinator: M. Pilar Marco Colás
We should stress the e orts made by the CIBER-BBN to lead an initiative that has been submitted for the call for preparatory actions for future FET-FLAGSHIPS in the eld of nanomedicine The project is entitled “Precision nanomedicine for People (Nano4P)” (www nano4p eu) Researchers from di erent interna- tional organisations are involved in the proposal and there have been a large number of accession
The researchers from the Nanomedicine programme of the CIBER-BBN have continued with the exter- nal nancing projects obtained such as: the European SMART-4 FABRY project (Smart mul- tifunctional GLA-nanoformulation for Fabry Disease), coordinated by the CIBER (P I : Dr Nora Ventosa) On the national scale the TERARMET projects (Public-private RETOS project), PENTRI (Project Marató de TV3), Nano- ET-Leukemia (RETOS R+D+i projects) are still under way
The funds obtained for undertaking certain projects in calls for public nancing in both national and international spheres should be mentioned The following research projects could be stressed:
• European “Integrated Precision Medicine Research Center of Excellence – IPMT CoE” project, in which CIBER-BBN along with the German Fraunhofer Institute for Biomedical Engineering (IBMT) take part as advisors of known prestige of the University of Cyprus (UCY)the institution coordinating the proposal
• European “Exploitation of extracellular vesicles for precision diagnostics of prostate cancer – PROSCANEXO” project ERANET-TRANSCAN-2 (JTC2016) CIBER-BBN coordinates the project (P I : Jesús Martinez de la Fuente) along with di erent European partners
• Jesús Santamaría has obtained an Advanced Grant from the European Research Council (ERC) with the CADENCE project “Catalytic Dual-Function Devices Against Cancer”
