About this research area
Regenerative engineering seeks to restore healthy tissues and organs damaged or lost due to disease, trauma, age, or congenital defects. We engineer biomaterials and biomanufacturing platforms to direct cell behavior toward tissue regeneration.
- Regeneration of living tissues
- Delivery of therapeutics
- Hemostasis and wound healing
- Biofabrication
- Cell and tissue manufacturing
