Objectives
ISIDE aims to give a strong breakthrough in this scenario, by developing innovative resorbable and corrosion-controlled customized prostheses. A multidisciplinary approach is proposed, involving a team composed of medical and material scientists, manufacturing and chemistry engineers, biochemists, biologists, and biomechanical engineers.
ISIDE aims to get “smart” and translational solutions to the major challenges of the biomedical prostheses and biomaterials based on the possibility to:
- reduce the implant failure due to bacterial infection,
- improve the implant surface features for a quicker and better osteogenesis.
ISIDE also aims to innovate biomedical prostheses characterised by a controlled degradation rate, which do not need any second surgery to be removed and which have shapes perfectly fitting the patient anatomy.
