RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT

Complementary to the contract research services, Bionos participates in various R&D projects in collaboration with national and international companies and public institutions.

H2020 – AlgaeCeuticals (Marie Sklodowska-Curie actions)

Microalgae biomass represents a rich source for discovery. The potential for algae-based ingredients in the industry relies on the manipulation and targeting of ingredients to fit increasingly niche product specifications. Algae are exposed to extreme environment and thus have developed unique mechanism for protection. Furthermore, algae produce for the same reason different metabolites which we need to identify and exploit in a sustainable way for the production of food, drugs and cosmetics.
The AlgaeCeuticals project will take advantage of the native algae strains producing high added value products and through the application of novel omics technologies (genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, enzymomics and metabolomics) as well as algae culture technologies and production of novel products. AlgaeCeuticals will screen and characterize algae biodiversity, develop and optimize algae culture systems, develop omics resources for algae and also develop downstream processing strategies and also develop novel products.

Proyecto OGMIOS – INNEST2021-56 (AVI)

PROJECT: INNEST2021-56 – Bionos Biotech – Cooperative Strategic Projects (OGMIOS Project)

The objective of the OGMIOS project is the design and development of an intelligent decision support system in the field of genomic clinical diagnosis, specifically in the field of genetic predisposition to pediatric cancer and cardiovascular diseases (familial heart disease with risk of sudden death). The proposed solution is based on the analysis of the technological problems posed by the real implementation of an effective Precision Medicine (PM), with the aim of creating an intelligent information system to assist the clinical expert in the diagnostic process, covering all stages of genetic diagnosis and enabling its integration into daily clinical practice.

As a result of the development of this project, a technology destined to become an essential part of the clinical diagnostic process will be obtained, allowing to position the Valencian Community as a reference in the diagnosis and personalized treatment of quality in children’s oncology and cardiovascular medicine. This technology can be applied and exploited in other clinical and industrial environments (e.g. agri-food).
