Training Modules
Laboratory Techniques in Biomaterials and Regenerative Medicine - Initial training on preparation of 2D and 3D substrates (hydrogels and porous biomaterials) for culturing cells and basic training on cell studies will be carried out at INEB, during the first 3 months of the programme. The essential topics to be covered in the period at INEB include four modules. A fifth module will be included in the training programme and will be organized by IBEC.
