iNanoBIT project

A European consortium coming from a common project: iNanoBIT

A project aiming at the integration of nanotechnology and biotechnology for the transplantation of beta cells and Langerhans islets. 

The project

The iNanoBIT project aims to apply nanotechnology for the imaging of pancreatic islet cell transplants and beta cells derived from induced pluripotent stem cells and subsequent regenerative processes in vivo. The iNanoBIT project will provide the currently missing toolbox leading to regenerative medicinal cell and tissue products into advanced pre-clinical testing and clinical trials, which is vital for the competitiveness of the European healthcare sector in this rapidly growing field.
