Role within Force Repair
At Force Repair, Vicomtech focuses on the development of a new high-level software to generate the printing trajectories for the bioprinter that will allow to manufacture the 4D multi-material dressing for the treatment of chronic skin wounds proposed in the project. Vicomtech will also develop a new software that will allow to simulate the mechanical behavior of the dressing, considering the spatial distribution of the materials that constitute it, as well as its response to stimulation by ultraviolet light, which is what allows the dressing to deform in a controlled way and release skin tension in the wound
