Light and Organic Nanotechnology for Cardiovascular Disease (LION-HEARTED)

LION-HEARTED will demonstrate a novel therapeutic approach to address Cardiovascular Disease. Optical excitation and organic nanotechnology will be exploited to modulate regeneration of main cardiovascular cell types. Optical excitation will provide unprecedented spatio-temporal resolution, lower invasiveness, and higher selectivity in respect to traditional electrical and pharmaceutical control methods. Organic semiconductors will act as efficient, highly biocompatible phototransducers, able to trigger biological pathways relevant to cardiac repair, with a minimally invasive and gene-less approach. The semiconductor physics group contributes to the LIONHEARTED project by developing novel tools for the characterization of optoelectronic semiconductor/tissue interfaces.
