@ezeferrero El problema más grave es el desconocimiento de que para que exista transferencia de calidad tienen que existir décadas de investigación básica sólida y rigurosa.

The number of grant applications is rising sharply. Our capacity for their evaluation isn’t.

ERC President Maria Leptin explains why stricter resubmission limits are being introduced for 2027 calls and what this mean for applicants.

🎉Our BioXolography paper made the inside back cover of Advanced Materials!
We used this light-sheet-based technique to 3D-bioprint complex living matter (vol >1cm³; resol > 20 µm) and to spatially pattern stiffness & (bio)functionality. doi.org/10.1002/adma.2…
Check comments👇

Finally, we showed that BioXolography can be used for multi-materials 3D-printing. This video shows a cute Dutch tulip🌷 with a hard plastic stem and soft hydrogel-based petals

Great news!🔥 I’m happy and grateful for being awarded an ENW-XS grant (@NWOFunding) for my work at @UTwente. This funding promotes high-risk/high-gain projects with groundbreaking impact. nwo.nl/en/news/twenty…

I’ll be working with novel 3D printing techniques to scale up tissue bioprinting. Will keep you updated!

BREAKING NEWS:
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2022 #NobelPrize in Chemistry to Carolyn R. Bertozzi, Morten Meldal and K. Barry Sharpless “for the development of click chemistry and bioorthogonal chemistry.”

Anti-fouling poly(acrylamide) (PAM) gels are a useful tool to understand cell-materials interactions and cell behavior.🧑🏾‍🔬🧫
But.. wait.. aren't they anti-fouling?
Check out our (mini)review about strategies to biofunctionalize PAM for 2D-cell culture doi.org/10.3389/fchem.…

Mechanical and biological cues present in cell (micro)environment affect cell behavior and cell fate. PAM gels offer a controlled environment regarding those variables. But the biofunctionalization can be a struggle if you don't choose the appropriate chemistry.

We hope that this review will work as a quick guide for those who want to choose an adequate strategy for biofunctionalization of PAM gels, considering: chemo-selectivity, bio-functionality, price, time and user-friendliness of different approaches. @PaezLab @Chestnutstars
