Project title: SMART4SCLERO – Smart Injectable Scaffolds for Sclerostin Based Bone Resorption Treatment
Start/end date: october 2023 – ongoing
Funding Agency/Programme: Ministry of University and Research – PRIN Call 2022 (Progetti di Ricerca di Rilevante Interesse Nazionale/ Research Projects of Relevant National Interest) on behalf of the project Coordinator Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche (Napoli).
