Dear Trainees, Drs. Marcelo Munoz and Emilio Alarcon will facilitate a workshop on Peptide Synthesis and Applications in Regenerative Medicine at the University of Ottawa Heart Institute from August 14th to 17th, 2023...
Responsive surfaces can be created by coating or directly modifying materials with switchable molecules to optimize the properties at the surface for modulating cell behaviour and protein adsorption1...
Myofibroblasts have been implicated in scar tissue formation around biomaterials. When biomaterials are implanted as part of a tissue engineered construct, as a sensor, as a prosthetic or even as a drug delivery device, scar formation fibrosis around the biomaterial often interferes with the intended function...
Polymers prepared from trimethylene carbonate bearing a pendant methoxyethoxy side group exhibit a thermoresponsive nature and thus are potentially of interest as biomaterials...
Peripheral arterial disease is a chronic condition caused by the formation and hardening of fatty plaque within arteries and arterioles, resulting in narrowing or blocking of the vessels carrying blood to the limbs...
