Welcome to the website of EP4Bio²Med – a consortium of researchers working in the field of electroporation.

Currently the consortium connects 510 researchers coming from 156 institutions in 35 countries - world-class experts of electroporation, working on research and applications of electroporation across the industrial and scientific spectrum (e.g. tumor ablation, food processing, cryopreservation, wine production...).

Our aim is to foster development of new and existing electroporation-based applications and as well as to facilitate coordination and interdisciplinary exchange of knowledge and know-how between researchers from different scientific fields and countries.
