Biofabrication
Biofabrication focuses on cutting-edge research regarding the use of cells, proteins, biological materials and biomaterials as building blocks to manufacture biological systems and/or therapeutic products. Emphasis is on the development of fabrication technologies, modelling of the fabricated constructs and maturation of biofabricated objects towards the intended tissue types. It includes the following topics:
Cell, tissue and organ printing, patterning and assembly
for in vitro cell models and tissue models
for tissue precursors, analogs and substitutes
as disease models
as drug/toxicological screening models
Biofabricated cell/biological material-integrated systems and medical devices
biochips and biosensors
cell-laden microfluidic devices
cell/tissue/lab/organ-on-a-chip
Novel 3D tissue scaffold fabrication
convergence of (bio)fabrication technologies
novel processes for complex scaffolds and surface engineering
bioactive and bioinspired tissue scaffolds
engineering ‘active and reactive’ interfaces within hierarchical structures
direct and indirect fabrication methods…etc.
