Dear members of the Canadian Biomaterials Society, We are inviting you today to a Conference Series that is being organized by the BioEngineering and Therapeutic Solutions BEaTS Laboratory, in partnership with the Ottawa Student Chapter of the CBS CBS-OSC , the University of Ottawa, the University of Ottawa Heart Institute, and the University of Toronto...
Injectable hydrogels based on chitosan CH , a polysaccharide biopolymer that is soluble in acidic conditions, are increasingly used for biomedical and pharmaceutical applications...
Injectable hydrogels that can be delivered using needles offer particular advantages in biomedical applications given that these hydrogels do not require invasive surgical implantation, thereby reducing recovery time for patients, reducing costs, and in many cases enabling direct encapsulation, rather than post-encapsulation, of cells during the gel formation process 1 ...
Vascular tissue engineering usually relies on the cellularization of scaffold materials with vascular cells with the ultimate aim to produce artificial blood vessels substitutes overcoming the drawbacks of current vascular grafts, especially for small diameter vessels...
Following cataract surgery, 20- 40 of patients experience reduced or afflicted vision via the development of posterior capsule opacification PCO , or secondary cataracts 1 ...
