UPV - Universitat Politècnica de València
UPV: Universitat Politècnica de València (www.upv.es) is a public university with four campus sites, over 35,000 students and 2,600 faculty members and research staff. It consists of 44 Departments, most of them in engineering areas, and is the top University in Spain regarding patent production.
Contributors to this project come from the Center for Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering (CBIT) of the UPV.
CBIT is a multidisciplinary Research Institution dedicated to the development of biomaterials for different biomedical applications, especially those focused on regenerative medicine. It has a 18-year research expertise in different aspects of synthesizing microparticles, microfibers, or 3D scaffolds, functionalizing their surfaces, and characterizing their physicochemical and in vitro biological properties. Currently, the group is formed by 48 researchers, 25 of them being faculty members, and the remaining 23 members being students developing their PhD or Master theses in CBIT.
