The BIOMAT board is composed of researchers based throughout France who work on a wide range of biomaterials-related topics (bone, blood vessels, cell–material interactions, processing techniques, etc.) and who help strengthen links between stakeholders in these fields.
The young researchers section organises monthly webinars and events dedicated to early-career researchers, including summer schools and conference workshops.
