Co-Assembled and Microfabricated Bioactive Membranes
The paper provides a novel bottom-up/top-down fabrication platform to create membranes for a variety of applications, currently investigated for regeneration of heart tissue, abdominal wall, and bone. The unique fabrication approach led to an invited review article in Chemical Society Reviews 2011, a plenary lecture (8th International Conference on Nanosciences and Nanotechnologies, Greece), keynote presentations (2nd Semi-Annual Symposium on Biomaterials. The Austen BioInnovation Institute in Akron, USA and BiomMedD’2012, Romania) and talks (Nanopeptide 2012, Manchester, UK). The results reported in the paper served as the basis for recently acquired grant funding from the Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology (€177k).
