ImplantSens - Mass‐transfer independent long‐term implantable glucose biosensors

Implantsens is an Marie Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions European Training Network that is funded from 2019 to 2022. The aim of this training network is to develop implantable long-term stable glucose biosensors by overcoming mass-transport limitations.
ImplantSens consists of a network of 4 universities, 3 research centers and 4 companies from 7 European countries. In order to design and engineer the goal of ImplantSens, we are 13 early stage reseachers in the field of electrochemistry, bioelectrochemistry, organic chemistry for surface modification, nanotechnology, enzyme engineering and -production, and bioanalysis.
