INTRODUCTION AND OBJETIVES

NANOBIOCOM is a research project founded by the European Commission. It is a Specific targered Research Project within the 6th Framework Programme-Priority 3- Nanotechnologies and nanosciences, knowledge based multifunctional materials, new production processes and devices-”NMP”.

The main objective of the nanobiocom project

The main objective of the NANOBIOCOM project is to establish the scientific and technological basis for the development new “intelligent” composite scaffold for bone tissue repair and regeneration with bioactive behavior capable of activating osteoprogenitor cells and genes and within an in vivo environment provide the interface to respond to physiological and biological changes, with mechanical and structural properties similar to a healthy bone and with size and shape required for reconstructing big skeletal defects.
