BAMBBI is an ERC European funded project, leaded by Prof. Maria-Pau Ginebra, that aims to tackle the challenge of bacterial bone infections in orthopaedic and maxillofacial surgery by developing synthetic bone grafts featuring contact-based antimicrobial properties, adding antimicrobial activity to their capacity to support bone regeneration.
In addition to being a major breakthrough in the field of bone regeneration, the progress in new methods of fine-tuning the nanostructure of calcium phosphates will have an impact in very diverse fields such as catalysis, water purification and protein separation.
