Objectives and lines of research
Objectives
The objective of the group is to develop administration systems for active substances with advanced features for application in pharmacological therapy and regenerative medicine. In particular, the group designs and evaluates macro, micro and nano systems for the controlled delivery of drugs, personalized drugs by 3D printing, scaffolds for regenerative medicine, and drug-health product combination products (contact lenses, probes, catheters… medicated). It also develops materials with the ability to selectively capture substances with biomedical, analytical, and remediation fines. He has experience in design of experiments and artificial intelligence techniques. The group, recognized by the Xunta de Galicia as a competitive reference for its research activity, has various technologies of transversal interest such as supercritical fluids, 3D printing, electrospinning, surface treatment with plasma and equipment for material characterization.
