 The main focus of my research is to develop and understand biomaterials and the interaction of these materials with the host, our body and the cells within the body. The main goal of the research is enabling ourselves to use advanced materials to build implants that will guide cells to restore and establish new tissue. In our research, 3D printing is essential because it enables us to tailor biomaterials to either a specific patient or a specific cell type. The animation shows the interaction between the cell and the biomaterial. The cell is located in the middle of a large pore and stretches its arms into the material. This technology might be disruptive if we can understand how cells and materials interact we can exploit how cells build tissues and how cells build new materials and this will open up new possibilities for us to engineer new materials. The ultimate impact of this technology on society would be in the extreme case at which we have enabled us to build complete organs using these principles. In this case, the need for donor organs would be eliminated.
