Dirigido por el Dr. Ziyad S. Haidar, BioMAT’X es un laboratorio multidisciplinario de investigación clínica aplicada y ciencia básica, centrado en el diseño, desarrollo, formulación, caracterización, optimización, evaluación y rápido traslado del laboratorio a la práctica (Go-to-Market: Bench-top to Bed-/Chair-side ‘clinical’) de nuevos nano-biomateriales y sistemas nanométricos; principalmente para controlar la liberación y localización de agentes farmacéutico/terapéuticos y la ingeniería de tejidos en el complejo cráneo-maxilofacial.
El laboratorio se dedica principalmente al estudio de vías de señalización implicadas en la osteogénesis (defectos pequeños vs. grandes defectos, reparación ósea fisiológica vs. reparación mecánica inducida de huesos, intra-oral versus extra-oral versus ortopédica) y radioprotección de glándulas salivales (pre y post irradiación), y cómo este fundamento científico puede alterar o impactar el diseño, formulación, caracterización, optimización y personalización de nano-biomateriales, para su aplicación en reparación acelerada y medicina regenerativa, entre otros.
Paralelamente, BioMAT’X tiene un brazo especial enfocado en la introducción de nuevos dispositivos médicos y dentales para ayudar tanto al clínico como al paciente. En los últimos años, BioMAT’X ha generado con éxito una amplia cartera de productos atractivos teniendo en cuenta el consumidor final y la entrada en el mercado global.
El laboratorio tiene fuertes vínculos y participación de clínicos especializados en medicina y odontología, así como investigadores y estudiantes. Además, BioMAT’X tiene colaboraciones oficiales en curso con institutos investigadores en Salt Lake City, UT, EE.UU; Montreal, QC, Canadá; Toronto, ON, Canadá; London, Inglaterra; Estrasburgo, Francia; São Paulo, Brazil; Beirut, Líbano; Seúl, Corea del Sur; y Sendai, Japón; apertura de puertas y acceso a equipos avanzados, infraestructura e instalaciones, así como programas de intercambio de estudiantes.
El equipo de BioMAT’X aspira a crecer a través de la incorporación de estudiantes motivados, dedicados y jóvenes científicos, especialmente aquellos con una visión para la investigación traslacional y la innovación.
