EBERS has been recently awarded with the research project entitled "Desarrollo de un sistema predictivo de la viabilidad de órganos destinados a trasplante preservados en normotermia mediante sistemas de monitorización metabólica y técnicas de data mining" (TSI-100700-2015-13) from the call "Acción Estratégica de Economía y Sociedad Digital - Impulso Tecnológico, dentro del Plan de Investigación Científica y Técnica y de Innovación 2013-2016".

Funding is provided by the "Secretaría de Estado de Telecomunicaciones y para la Sociedad de la Información del Ministerio de Industria, Energía y Turismo" and the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).

This three-year project aims to identify those physiological parameters that determine the suitability of an organ to be implanted in a recipient by means of the application of data mining techniques to normothermic preservation systems. The new system will help the clinicians in the implantation decision process and will improve the use of sub-optimal organs in transplantation.
