The biotech approach to paediatric medical devices – European Biotech Week
During the European Biotech Week (27 September – 3 October 2021), the European Paediatric Translational Research Infrastructure (EPTRI) has organised a webinar “The biotech approach to paediatric medical devices” to explore the relationship between medical devices and biotechnology in the context of the needs of children and young people. It will also provide a case study on the challenge in developing resorbable implants for children and the need from the patients’ point of view.
