MULTraSonicA Multiscale modeling and simulation approaches for biomedical ultrasonic applications

Coordinator: KEMIJSKI INSTITUT (SI)

Ultrasound-guided drug and gene delivery (USDG) enables controlled and spatially precise delivery of drugs and macromolecules, encapsulated in microbubbles (MBs) and submicron gas vesicles (GVs), to target areas such as cancer tumors. It is a non-invasive, high precision, low toxicity process with drastically reduced drug dosage. These advantages open doors to numerous biomedical applications, from sonothrombolysis to bloodbrain barrier opening. However, the progress and deployment of this technology is subject to extensive experimentation and heuristics. The proposal aims to develop a virtua…

About Horizon 2020 (2014–2020)

Horizon 2020 was the EU's flagship research and innovation programme for 2014–2020, with a budget of around €77 billion. It bundled FP7's strands with the EIT and the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme, introduced a stronger societal-challenge orientation, and pushed the funding logic toward closer-to-market innovation. New calls closed in 2020 but funded projects continued through 2024.

EU contribution: €2.5M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 5 years from 2021-12-01 to 2026-11-30.
