The research infrastructure is oriented to medical applications and offers a complete and easily accessible service, through a single window, which includes the design, production of biomolecules, biomaterials, nanomaterials and their conjugates, and the characterization of these materials, tissues, medical devices and systems, from a physical, chemical, functional, toxicological and biological point of view until their preclinical validation in vivo.

BIONAND is located in Malaga and has recently integrated with the Institute of Biomedical Research of Malaga (IBIMA), an Institute of Health Research created in 2010 through an agreement between the Ministry of Health of the Junta de Andalucía and the University of Malaga, becoming part since 2022 of the new IBIMA Institute – BIONAND Platform.

It is a multidisciplinary center, in which the interaction of different professionals from the health, university and business fields allows to generate new systems of diagnosis, prevention and treatment of diseases based on the creation and development of devices, materials and approaches on a nanometric scale.
