A complete training programme is scheduled for the entire length of the project. The scheduled courses will cover subjects from the materials aspects, up to the biological aspects, passing across areas such as polymer science, scaffold design and processing, surface properties and modification, growth factors, controlled release of bioactive agents, cell sources and its culturing conditions, dynamic culturing, and in-vivo animal models and in-vivo functionality assessment.
Laboratory and other practical courses relevant to all the already referred research fields will also be prepared, in order to give the students a higher degree of knowledge from the bench top point of view. Discussion forums will be organised for brainstorming and discuss the main topics, ideas and scientific and technological developments. Lectures will be given by leading researchers and professors. In several of the incoming events, seminar presentations given by students will take place in a friendly discussion and relaxed environment.
The training program will also include a range of complementary courses aimed at reinforcing the ability of EST researchers to deal with non-directly related research activities. These courses can be divided based on two different objectives: to reinforce the EST researchers' scientific training with supplementary skills, or encouraging young researchers to proceed with their own projects, creating spin-offs, leading to their own enterprises and pushing forward the European Research Area (ERA) dynamics.
All the announced events will be open to external researchers, which will be selected according to different criteria depending on and publicized for each particular event.
