From 18 to 21 June in Santiago de Compostela we will be able to attend a course specialised in 3D Bioprinting organised by the University of Santiago de Compostela (USC) and the University Carlos III of Madrid. This event is part of the European project IBEROS+, which brings together more than 150 researchers from the Galicia-North Portugal Euroregion, focused on biofabrication for healthy ageing.
3D bioprinting is an emerging technology that allows the creation of three-dimensional structures through the use of living cells and biocompatible materials, thus revolutionising regenerative medicine. The course is aimed at a diverse audience, including undergraduate, masters and PhD students, as well as faculty and research staff, biotech companies and the general public. Registration at a reduced rate is open until 7 June for students, pensioners and unemployed people.
During the course, the new Master’s Degree in Bio-manufacturing, which is expected to start in September at the three Galician universities, will be presented. This master’s degree will offer advanced training in biofabrication, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, with an interdisciplinary approach.
IBEROS+ Project
The IBEROS+ project is funded by the Operational Programme for Cross-border Cooperation Interreg Spain-Portugal 2021-2027 (POCTEP) and has a budget of 2.2 million euros. Its objective is to develop R&D in biofabrication to address the socio-health challenges of ageing in the Euroregion and the European Union.
