Partnering for Health and Sustainability: SABİOTEK at Yıldız Technical University

The Health Biotechnology Joint Research and Application Center of Excellence (SABİOTEK) at Yıldız Technical University (YTU) leads multidisciplinary research to address key challenges in health, environmental safety, and digital health transformation. Our research aligns closely with the Horizon Europe Programme, and we are actively seeking collaborations under the following topics:

Cluster Health (CL1)

SABİOTEK is engaged in cutting-edge work involving biomaterials, neurodevelopmental disorders, environmental health, and digital transformation in medicine.

  • HORIZON-HLTH-2025-03-STAYHLTH-01
    Enhancing the quality of life of individuals with intellectual disabilities and their families through assistive biomaterials and inclusive technologies.

  • HORIZON-HLTH-2025-03-DISEASE-02
    Developing personalized therapeutic systems for mental and neurodevelopmental disorders using advanced materials and delivery platforms.

  • HORIZON-HLTH-2025-03-ENVHLTH-01 & 02
    Investigating the role of pollutants and micro/nanoplastics in brain disorders using in vitro tissue models and nanotoxicology tools.

  • HORIZON-HLTH-2025-01-DISEASE-04
    AI-based tools and models for early detection and rapid response to future pandemics.

  • HORIZON-HLTH-2025-01-CARE-01 & TOOL-03 (GenAI4EU)
    Exploring multimodal AI technologies for clinical decision-making, diagnostics, and biomedical research.

Cluster Food (CL6)

  • HORIZON-CL6-2025-02-FARM2FORK-12
    Studying nutrition's impact on mental health via bio-sensing technologies and dietary intervention models.

Cancer Mission

  • HORIZON-MISS-2025-02-CANCER-02
    Understanding the environmental contributors to cancer in children and young adults through exposure modeling and early biomarker discovery.

Why Partner with SABİOTEK?

  • Interdisciplinary Expertise: Specialists in biomaterials, nanomedicine, additive manufacturing, AI, and biotechnology.

  • Advanced Infrastructure: Fully equipped labs for 3D printing, microfluidics, cell culture, and material characterization.

  • Proven Track Record: Participation in Horizon, TÜBİTAK 1001, TÜSEB, Erasmus+, and Flag-ERA projects.

  • Flexible Collaboration Models: Ready for joint research, consortium building, co-publications, and student/academic exchanges.

We invite research institutes, universities, industry partners, and innovation clusters to join forces with SABİOTEK to tackle pressing health and sustainability challenges. Together, we can build transformative solutions for a resilient and inclusive Europe.
