IBEC Seminar: Enabling technologies for biofabrication of functional materials and biomimetic environments

Divendres, novembre 18, 2016 @ 12:00 pm1:00 pm

Enabling technologies for biofabrication of functional materials and biomimetic environments

Dr. Alvaro Mata, Director of the Institute of Bioengineering at Queen Mary University of London

The talk will present novel self-assembling and printing technologies enabling the fabrication of 2D and 3D bioactive and/or biomimetic materials for potential application in tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, and in vitro models.

Examples of projects that will be presented include a) a bioactive membrane capable of growing hierarchically-ordered hydroxyapatite structures that resemble those found in human dental enamel; b) a dynamic self-assembling peptide-protein system capable of controllably accessing non-equilibrium to grow tubes and capillaries with potential application in tissue engineering; and c) a simple 3D molecular printing method to create distinct chemical environments ranging from tens of microns to centimeters in size and depth within different types of hydrogels.
