Gianluca received the ERC Starting Grant for a total of €1.991.830 for the project called BRIDGE (Bioprinting with Real-time Imaging and cell-biomaterial Density for Growth Enhancement)

BRIDGE is promising to engineer a new 3D bioprinting approach to control and monitor, at the same time, the fabrication of hierarchical functional tissues, changing the way we assemble tissues in the lab

Congratulations to Lucia Iafrate, who received the Best Oral Presentation Award at the GNB 2025 – National Bioengineering Group Conference.

A well-deserved recognition for outstanding research in bioengineering and translational innovation.

Happy to share our front cover art published for Macromolecular Materials and Engineering (Wiley)
Huge credit to Greta Grassmann for the art!

Today, our PhD student (Salvatore D'Alessandro) successfully defended his PhD thesis work entitled "Engineering microfluidic-assisted 3D bioprinting platforms for skeletal tissue engineering and disease modelling". We are extremely happy to welcome Dr D'Alessandro success.

We attended the International Society for Biofabrication (ISBF) 2024 meeting in Fukuoka (Japan) last November and had some fun in organising a symposium entitled "It take two to tango: coupling microfluidics and 3D bioprinting to fabricate hierarchical functional constructs" jointly with Prof Grissel Trujillo de Santiago. 

Great conference and location, with the opportunity to share our most recent work on hierarchical biofabrication
