EU projects – Technology Scouting – Business Innovation

AMIRES long term cooperation with the Department of Biomedical Engineering and Measurement of the Technical University of Košice

In Prague, we were glad to kick off the collaboration between AMIRES, and the Department of Biomedical Engineering and Measurement of the Technical University of Košice (TUKE), Slovakia.

AMIRES acknowledges Marek Schnitzer, and part of his team Dr. Miroslav Kohan, Tomáš Bálint, Nikola Lisá in joining the Second Regenerative Medicine workshop on October 12 at the Technology Centre CAS, as well as in the RegMed workshop dinner a day before, on October 11.

Marek Schnitzer presented during the workshop the capabilities, results and use cases on bio-additive and additive manufacturing in personalized 3Dprinted implants of the TUKE Department of Biomedical Engineering and Measurement. All presented implants were designed in cooperation with the Department of Biomedical Engineering and Measurement (KBIaM, SjF, TUKE) with the spin-off company CEIT Biomedical Engineering, s.r.o., later Biomedical Engineering, s.r.o.(ISO13485 certified) and produced by the additive technology with porous structure from titanium alloys Ti-6Al-4V, composites and other materials.

The main interests of the Department of Biomedical Engineering and Measurement at TUKE are development of biodegradable materials such as polymers, composites, and others, development of instrumentation for additive manufacturing (production /printers) in clinical settings, bioreactors and quality measurement of filaments, composite structure, and ceramics. The members of the department have experience in collaborating in National projects, however they search to increase their collaboration with European organisations in the Horizon Europe framework.

The Department of Biomedical Engineering and Measurement at TUKE welcome organisations to partner in new endeavours to reach wider impacts on tissue engineering, implantology and regenerative medicine.
