Nanomembranas multifuncionales como biosensores inteligentes conformables para una monitorización clínica no invasiva (BIOSINTEL)
José Manuel García Torres
Universitat politècnica de Catalunya. Barcelona
The objective is to develop a new family of nanostructured flexible electronic materials to improve the adhesion and integration capacity of electronic devices on biological tissues (skin), thus favoring precise, reliable, non-invasive, continuous in-situ monitoring over time and of low cost.
Development of an in-situ gelation hydrogel for the controlled release of drugs with antidepressant potential by subcutaneous administration.
Fernando Yáñez Gómez
Universidad de las Islas Baleares. Palma de Mallorca
Development of a hydrogel capable of controlled release of potential antidepressant molecules, which after in vitro characterization, can be administered subcutaneously in adolescent-age animals.
Unravelling the coeliac immunome during disease Outcome
Dr. David Bernardo Ordiz
Instituto de Biomedicina y Genética Molecular. Valladolid
Our hypothesis is that by performing an in depth unbiased mucosal and circulating immunome characterization of CD patients (both GFD-treated but also at diagnose) we will unravel the immune fingerprint of the disease.
Chronocrit study: evaluation of sleep and circadian health of critical patients
Dr. Adriano Targa Días Santos
Institut de Recerca Biomèdica. Lleida
The objective of the research is to improve the management of sleep health and circadian rhythms after a critical illness, evaluating the role of miRNA expression profiles in the identification of sleep disturbances and circadian rhythms in critically ill patients during their stay in the ICU. , short (3 months after hospital discharge) and long term (12 months after hospital discharge).
Artificial intelligence (IA) to facilitate surgery. Use Case Proof-of-concept in Breast Cancer Surgery for a New Innovative Artificial Intelligence Automated Pre-Anesthesia Risk Assessment Tool
Dr. Andrés Ancor Serrano Afonso
Hospital Universitari de Bellvitge. IDIBELL. Hospitalet de Llobregat
The objective is to develop an artificial intelligence (AI) tool for pre-anesthesia risk assessment, carrying out a proof of concept of use case in breast cancer surgery, and proceeding to its automation through Machine Learning.
Plantes Mediterrànies contra els super bacteris del tracte respiratori
Dra. Sara Quero Blanca
Institut d’Investigació i Innovació Parc Taulí (I3PT). Sabadell
The objective is to evaluate the toxicity of 5 essential oils from Mediterranean plants against two lung cell lines. On the one hand, that of the minimum concentration of each oil with a cytotoxic effect in the 2 cell lines and, on the other hand, that of the minimum concentration of each oil with induction of apoptosis in the two cell lines.
