Smart Materials for Tissue Regeneration

The progressive ageing of the population demands new solutions to regenerate damaged tissues and organs. Our research focuses on understanding the alterations associated with pathological organs and developing materials capable of contributing to their repair, especially in pathologies that still lack definitive treatments.
We combine advanced smart materials with biofabrication techniques such as 3D printing and other additive manufacturing technologies. We design materials with spatially controlled chemistries and topographies, as well as stimuli-responsive systems that can be remotely activated by acoustic, magnetic or electrical signals, enabling precise and programmed responses in biomedical environments.
