SUPRALIFE

Unlocking the scientific excellence and innovation capacity of the University of Aveiro in supramolecular multicomponent biomaterials for enabling advanced biomaterials for healthcare

Grant period	2023-01-01 - 2025-12-31
Funding body	European Union
Call number	HORIZON-WIDERA-2021-ACCESS-03
Grant number	101079482
Identifier	G:(EU-Grant)101079482

Note: SUPRALIFE addresses current hurdles of UAVR in the supramolecular biomaterials’ chemistry field regarding its scientific know-how and partnerships with world-leading institutions. UAVR seeks to improve the multifunctionality of biopolymers, often with limited bioactivity, stimuli-responsiveness and mechanical properties, and increase their performance in biomedical applications. Biopolymers integration with self-assembling motifs would enable the development of innovative supramolecular architectures with bioinstructive and adaptive behaviour for enhanced cellular response, drug delivery and diagnosis. SUPRALIFE aims to surpass UAVR’s limited knowledge and expertise on non-covalent synthesis by launching an international scientific and training network to accelerate the pace on developing complex and innovative supramolecular multifunctional biomaterials to interface with living systems. The consortium encompasses UAVR and two internationally-leading institutions, TU/e and UBx, that will critically enhance UAVR’s scientific excellence, innovation capacity, and reputation in supramolecular chemistry and translational self-assembling biomaterials. UAVR’s capability to train highly-qualified researchers and staff will significantly increase, giving rise to a next-generation of specialised professionals with scientific and translational competences. SUPRALIFE proposes the organisation of joint events, networking activities, short-term on-site trainings and staff exchanges, expert visits, and an exploratory research project for stepping up and stimulating UAVR scientific excellence and innovation capacity. Outputs include increasing the track-record and quality level of publications, IP, innovative biomedical products and regional-to-national economic development. SUPRALIFE will empower the establishment of a ground-breaking and long-lasting collaborative consortium for steadily and sustainably pursuing new joint research projects and innovative research lines at UAVR.
