Project Description
Universitat Rovira i Virgili
Universitat Rovira i Virgili is a public university located in Tarragona, Spain. Interfibio is a “consolidated research group” recognized for its excellence by the ministry of Education of the autonomous government of Catalonia and comprises 4 permanent staff members, 1 tenure track, 6 postdoctoral researchers, 14 PhD students, 6 masters students and 2 administrative assistants. Interfibio is a research group formed in 2004 to create a critical mass of researchers of the Department of Chemical Engineering of the URV working at the bio/material interface. The team combines long experience in bioelectrochemistry and physical chemistry, molecular biology and nanotechnology/materials science. The most productive and active research of the group is centred in the exploitation of breakthroughs at the confluence of bio-, micro- and nano- technologies to create low-cost non invasive intelligent diagnosis systems that can be applied to clinical, environmental and food analysis. Research activities also focus on the development of new sensors and relevant amplification systems for applications in microarrays and the selection and exploitation of aptamers. URV was partner in the former HORIZON 2020 project “PoCOsteo”.
