Nutraceuticals and foods of interestTo provide in vitro 3D physiologically-relevant in vitro models of biological tissues and organs to study the relationship between food and health. My research interest is focused on the development of in vitro models of target organs by means of Organ-on-chip and bioprinting technology and ECM-like hydrogels synthesis. Any of interest. I would like to provide a platform to study the response of the biological tissue and organs to neutraceuticals of interest, such as vitamins, probiotics, minerals, and others. Fields of application Neurodegenerative and autoimmune diseases, cancer Facilities and equipments All the open Facilities available at Nanotec, such as Tecnomed, nanochemistry and clean rooms |
