IMPACT

1. Enhancing the potential and future career perspectives of the staff members:

Either early stage researchers or experienced researchers have the opportunity to enhance their career development by taking advantage of the exchange program and knowledge transfer within BAMOS.

2. Development of new and lasting research collaborations:

BAMOS will allow the collaboration between partners where most of them have not worked together so far. The reason of this is the different fields of research of some partners, more focused in tissue engineering in some cases (UCL, XJTU, UMINHO), manufacturing processes/additive manufacturing in others (ULPGC, SHIM, ZJU) as well as clinical activity in one of them (RNOH). BAMOS will provide the opportunity to the partners to share knowledge from different fields but with high level of complementarity.

3. Self-sustainability of the partnership after the end of the project:

BAMOS is expected to create strong links of future collaboration since partners will realize of mutual benefit of such a collaborative structure. The proposal aims at significantly constructing a network of beneficial international research collaborations between the European institutions and the Chinese centres in the fields of tissue engineering and additive manufacturing.

4. Contribution of the project to the improvement of the research and innovation potential within Europe and/or worldwide:

The long-lasting relationship which can be foreseen with the third country (China) involved in the research ensures the contribution of this project to the objectives of increasing international cooperation and opening European researchers to the world.

5. Dissemination of results:

The partners will disseminate BAMOS results to a broad audience within the medical and AM sectors, as well as to the biofabrication industry. The consortium will organise two international scientific conferences (one in the EU, one in China) and 3 workshops.
