Bioiberica reaffirms its commitment to innovation with four new scientific publications in 2020

Researchers from Bioiberica's Human Health R&D Department have published four new articles in high scientific impact journals in the first two months of 2020.

The papers present the results of experimental studies on the use of Bioiberica's hyaluronic acid for artificial cartilage bioprinting (1) and various regulatory and technical aspects on the use of cell cultures in advanced therapies (2, 3, 4).  

They are the result of Bioiberica's participation in the RETOS R&D consortia (RTC-2016-5451-1 financed by the Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness) and ADVANCECAT (within the RIS3CAT programme financed by ACCIÓ, the Agency for the Competitiveness of Enterprise of the Government of Catalonia, and by the European Union).

These papers are part of the new strategic plan for Innovation and Development of the company's Human Health area, currently focused on the therapeutic areas of Dermatology and Joint Health.
