Tissue Integrating Injectable Microporous Scaffolds for Regenerative Healing, Sensing, and Drug Delivery

Abstract

Tissue Integrating Injectable Microporous Scaffolds for Regenerative Healing, Sensing, and Drug DeliveryMaterials that can seamlessly integrate with surrounding tissue at the microscale and are easily injected subcutaneously or to fill a wound can be broadly useful in acute hemostasis, long-term regeneration of functional tissue, development of continuous implanted sensors, and sustained drug delivery. We aim to investigate how the physiochemical and structural properties of microporous annealed particle gels achieve these beneficial properties and to further engineer thesesystems.
