My research group is focussed on developing new bioengineering technologies that can provide control over the assembly of biomaterials and tissues. I have a long-standing interest in ultrasound: waves of pressure that can interact with living and non-living matter to instigate a range of chemical, physical, and biological processes. First, I will discuss a technology that uses high-frequency...

Nowadays, great attention is devoted to the development of 3D in-vitro neuronal models both for fundamental neuro-mechanobiology applications as well as for disease modelling. Typical approaches include either scaffold-free or scaffold-based strategies. Although the first ones, based on cell self-assembly mechanisms, lead to the formation of tissue-like structures called... -

The current gold standard for peripheral nerve repair is autograft. However, the low availability of nerves and loss of function at the donor site are the major disadvantages associated with this procedure. Thus, to address the limited regenerative capability of the human nerves, nerve guidance conduits (NGCs) fabricated using biocompatible and biodegradable materials has proven to be a...

Chronic back and joint pain has been rated as a top risk factor of disability worldwide. In vitro culture of peripheral sensory nerve, namely dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons, is a useful model to investigate pain-associated biology and to discover novel regenerative medicine in terms of pain alleviation. Typical monolayer culture of DRG cells, however, losses the multicellular... -

3D in vitro systems are an envisioned alternative to animal models especially in drug testing for research of antitumor treatments (1). Within native tissue microenvironments, the vascular system supports the physiological organ growth with nutrients and growth factors, but also plays important role in pathological conditions such as treatment-resistant tumor progression. Among... -

Melt electrowriting (MEW) technique is a manufacturing technology used to fabricate scaffold with user-oriented design. Main distinctive compared to additive manufacturing technique is its ability to fabricate the diameter of few micrometers to sub micrometers range while maintaining high surface to volume ratio. However, this technique has certain drawbacks, such as inaccurate large volume...

Within the scope of personalised healthcare in the field of regenerative medicine, patient-derived cells are key players. Their successful application is, however, often hampered by low cell numbers at the expense of donor-site morbidity and lengthy in vitro expansion. Novel biofabrication methods requiring lower initial cell numbers are therefore timely to address this unmet...
