Andreu Blanquer Jerez

Andreu Blanquer Jerez is a researcher in the Department of Cellular Biology, Physiology and Immunology, specializing in biomaterials and biomedical engineering. He leads and collaborates on projects addressing implant biocompatibility, tissue engineering, and advanced materials for medical applications. His current role includes Principal Investigator for the ASSESSMENT OF PIEZOELECTRIC NANOGENERATORS project (2024–2027) and Investigator in SHIELD (2025–2029).

• Key Projects:
  • BiOREMIA: Biocompatible hard tissue implants (2020–2024)
  • Materiales porosos eléctricos para ingeniería tisular (2018–2021)

Research Interests: Development of biocompatible materials for implants, surface engineering of metals/alloys, and antimicrobial strategies. His work bridges material science and clinical applications, focusing on reducing implant infections and improving tissue integration.

Recent Articles (2023–2024) explore advanced materials like nanofibrous membranes for wound healing, photoactivatable ruthenium complexes, and surface-modified alloys for orthopedic use. His studies emphasize cytocompatibility, biodegradation kinetics, and anti-biofilm properties.

Collaborations include European Commission-funded initiatives and partnerships across material science and biomedical institutions. Advising includes doctoral supervision on biomaterials for orthopedics (2016).
