Functional living biointerphases

The paper establishes a new route in biomaterials surface modifications for regenerative medicine, in which a fibronectin fragment is expressed by modified bacteria as a membrane protein and used to create a functional interface. In 2011, the work was presented at the Spanish academic-clinical network, CIBER-BBN (http://www.ciber-bbn.es/en) and recognised through the 2012 CIBER-BBN Young Scientific Forum in Biomaterials, (http://www.ciber-bbn.es/en/programas/311-ysf?start=1). One direct outcome was a collaboration with Abengoa (http://www.abengoa.com/web/en/ ) where Professor Salmeron-Sanchez was seconded for 60% of his time, 2011-2012. In 2012 he was also invited by Professor Doblare, Scientific Director, (manuel.doblare@research.abengoa.com) to join Abengoa Research Division's Scientific Directive Board.
