The Institute for Advanced Materials of the Universitat Jaume I (INAM) has expanded its research teams with the incorporation of two new groups, the BIOSUPRAMAT team, coordinated by Beatriu Escuder, from the Department of Organic and Inorganic Chemistry, and the NEUROBIOTEC group, led by Ana Sánchez, from the Predepartmental Unit of Medicine.

This extension is part of INAM's strategy to expand its research areas to the adaptation of biological materials for functional applications. The aim is to modify and apply biological matter for sustainability, health and energy, and also to fuse biological materials with organic and inorganic matter. This combination of biological matter with organic and inorganic materials can provide a range of fundamental knowledge and significant applications. The design of new biomaterials, bioactive molecules and compounds, and the formulation and synthesis of functional polymers with a defined action are important tools for the development of new systems for drugs, cell signalling factors and biomolecules, which can be applied as nanoparticles, hydrogels or bioactive coatings in various applications.

The two scientists joining INAM have proven research track records in fields that will boost the growth and diversity of this research institute.

The BIOSUPRAMAT (Bioinspired Supramolecular Chemistry and Materials) group uses biology as an inspiration for the design of functional supramolecular materials. Its research programme focuses on the development of peptide-based soft materials for applications in biomimetic supramolecular catalysis, drug delivery and as biomaterials for regenerative medicine.

The NEUROBIOTEC neurobiotechnology group focuses on the pathophysiology of diseases of the nervous system, using a wide range of strategies, from biotechnological tools to natural product analogues, to develop new intervention strategies with improved therapeutic potential. Emerging lines of research include disease risk prediction based on mathematical algorithms and artificial intelligence, combining genetics and 3D printing of organs to study anti-tumour drugs.
