Living Photonics: Monitoring light propagation through cells (LiPhos)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2015,

LIPHOS is focused on the development of completely innovative biophotonic diagnosis tools, which are for the first time implemented using cells as constituent material. Here, and unlike existing systems, light remains confined in a waveguide whose core is uniquely composed by cells, giving rise to the "Living photonics" concept. In this context, cells play a two-fold role: i) they form the biomate ...

ICT-enabled, cellular artificial liver system incorporating personalized patient management and support (d-LIVER)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2015,

d-LIVER applies scenario-driven development methodologies to address an unmet need for bio-artificial liver support via continuous detoxification as remote transient therapy at the Point-of-Need. The liver is a complex organ with various vital functions in synthesis, detoxification and regulation; its failure is life-threatening and the only curative treatment is transplantation. Whilst awaiting t ...

NANO-OPTICAL MECHANICAL SYSTEMS (NOMS)

Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Aug 31, 2012,

Nano-optical mechanical actuation based on nanotube-enriched polymeric materials is a much sought-after technology. In this scheme, light sources promote mechanical actuation of the polymeric materials producing a variety of nano–optical mechanical systems such as tactile displays, artificial muscles, and nano-grippers among others. The purpose of the NOMS project is to fabricate microsystems capa ...

Coeliac Disease – Management, Monitoring and Diagnosis using Biosensors and an Integrated Chip System (CD-MEDICS)

Start date: Feb 1, 2008, End date: Jul 31, 2012,

The overall concept of the CD-MEDICS IP is to develop a technology platform for point-of-care diagnostics, capable of simultaneous genomic and proteomic detection, with embedded communication abilities for direct interfacing with hospital information systems. This will be achieved by exploiting breakthroughs at the confluences of bio-, micro- and nano- technologies to create a low-cost non-invasiv ...
