INJECTHEAL Project kick-off meeting
Full title of the project: “Multifunctional Self-Healing Injectable Hydrogel for Chronic Wound Healing and Tissue Regeneration”
Akribes is part of the INJECTHEAL consortium, which consists of 13 partners from 8 European countries (Italy, Austria, Germany, Ireland, Spain, Switzerland, and the UK), with the aim of contributing to the advancement of knowledge and applications in the field of chronic wound healing.
At the heart of the project is the development of a 4D injectable self-healing hydrogel, designed for the targeted release of medications into complex wounds, contributing to the reduction of inflammation and infection and supporting tissue regeneration. The hydrogel will be developed using sustainable materials, with the goal of providing an advanced therapeutic option, particularly for deep cavity wounds.
INJECTHEAL is funded by the European Union through the Horizon Europe research and innovation programme (project duration: three years).

Kick-off day for new EU Project FORCE REPAIR: Innovating Chronic Wound Treatment
As a member of a multi-disciplinary and multi-national consortium, Akribes was granted funding by the European Union for the Horizon Europe project entitled FORCE REPAIR, the acronym for “smart and multiFunctional 3D printable prO-Regenerative biologiCal matrix modulating mEchanotRansduction as advancEd theraPy to treAt skIn chRonic wounds.”
The goal of this ambitious project is to improve chronic wound treatment with customized wound dressings by 3D-printing of functionalized bio-inks to relieve skin tension, fight infection, reduce inflammation and support regeneration of healthy tissue.
Please see the FORCE_REPAIR_Press release for more details, and follow the project on the website https://forecepair-wounds.eu and the FORCE REPAIR LinkedIn account.
