Additional information

This interdisciplinary research introduced graphene oxide to reinforce polypeptide gelatin nanocomposites for the first time. The resultant nanocomposites exhibit enhanced mechanical properties and bioactivity which is suitable for bone tissue engineering application. This is part of work from Dr C Wan’s Marie Curie Fellowship which was funded by FP 7 European Commission (PIIF-GA-2009-236739 FP7 IIF). The research results led to a further project: Technology and Innovation Development Award (TIDA) funded by Science Foundation Ireland (SFI) in 2011. A series of biopolymer/graphene oxide nanocomposites have been under developing for soft or hard tissue scaffolds as a result of this work.
