ℹ️ Penile #urethralstrictures and severe hypospadias are complex conditions impacting quality of life. They are difficult to treat, with high rates of recurrence and limited long-term solutions ➡️https://www.strong-ur.eu/bioprinting-solution/
#RegenerativeMedicine #Bioprinting #TissueReconstruction

We will be present at #Biofabrication 2025, themed “Revolutionising healthcare through biofabrication: challenges and breakthroughs for a healthier future.“
📍 Warsaw, Poland
🗓️ 14-17 September

🔬 Meet the partner: UMC Utrecht!

As one of the Netherlands’ leading academic medical centres, UMC Utrecht brings world-class expertise in research, care, and innovation.

With a strong international profile, they are committed to translating knowledge into tangible health benefits for patients.

🖊️ What if surgeons could draw new tissue directly where it’s needed?

That’s the idea behind the BioPen, a handheld 3D bioprinter developed by STRONG-UR partner AdBioInk. This small, pen-like device can deliver living cells straight onto damaged areas, helping the body heal itself in real time.

🔬🚀 Big news for the EU research and innovation community!

The European Commission has announced the next Framework Programme for Research and Innovation that will remain self-standing, while being closely aligned with the planned European Competitiveness Fund.

🔎 Currently, no commercially available bioink hydrogels offer both tuneable mechanical and biological properties.

That’s why STRONG-UR is developing new dynamic hydrogels based on gelatine, providing unprecedented control over these key properties.
