In 2005, Hubbell wrote a review article in Nature Biotechnology suggesting the development of a 'toolkit' of synthetic biomaterials ... behavior in culture such that the cells mimicked as close ...

reproducible 3D cell-culture systems for cancer research are very desirable, particularly if they can be produced on a large scale from either natural, synthetic or hybrid biomaterials with well ...

Cell culture is a fundamental technique in biotechnology and life sciences that involves growing and maintaining living cells outside their natural environment, typically in a controlled laboratory ...

This theme takes a multidisciplinary approach to understanding the mechanisms that determine the responses of cells and tissues to biomaterials and biomechanical cues (mechanobiology), and how these ...

Jason Burdick and his Biomaterials and Biofabrication Laboratory design new biomaterials that can be processed through fabrication methodologies to meet the needs of medicine, ranging from ...

Neural tissue engineering, spinal cord repair, cardiovascular diseases, drug delivery, biomaterial scaffolds, stem cells, neural electrode/tissue interface, and surface modification.

Our goals are to pioneer the development of biomaterial systems for 3D cell culture to further fundamental understanding of how cells receive and exchange information with their extracellular ...

The Biomaterials Group aims to develop self-assembled, bio-integrated electronic, synthetic, and nanoscale materials for biomedical applications. Research and teaching areas include self-assembled ...

and advanced cell culture systems. Our current research projects are focused on physical control of materials and surfaces, including surface topography and mechanical stiffness, to modulate cells and ...

The department’s tissue engineering and biomaterials research focuses on developing new materials for applications in medicine and biology, as well as engineering biological tissues from adult stem ...

covering fundamental principles and methods related to processing-microstructure-property linkages as applied to biomaterials science. Essential concepts and techniques of the cell biology are ...

A simple biomaterial-based strategy that can influence the behavior of cells could pave the way for more effective medical treatments such as wound healing, cancer therapy and even organ ...
