Team picture
Regenerative medicine seeks to create functional lab-grown body parts, yet clinical success has often fallen short. One reason is that even though we can replicate the appearance of tissues and organs, we cannot fully mimic how they naturally build themselves from the ground up. This leads to dysfunctional tissues. To address this, our team focuses on advancing tissue manufacturing using bottom-up self-assembly and cutting-edge 3D(bio) printing. By merging principles from structural engineering, materials processing, and biology, we develop manufacturing processes that mimic natural processes of tissue formation. Through this integrated approach, we engineer constructs with potential as implantable structures or in vitro tissue models.
