2) Complex Hybrid device for Bone Tissue Engineering (Funded by FCT post doc Fellowhsip):
In this project, we are hypothesizing that creating a multiscale device that combines instructive biomaterials and cross-talk between different cell types and immune cells could orchestrate synergistic signals towards faster bone regeneration. Such kind of recreation of the native regenerative niche could have potential implication to engineer complex multiscale injectable devices for regenerative medicine.
