Research Interests

Biomaterials, Peptides, Hyaluronan, Hydrogels, Self-assembly, regenerative medicine

Application of self-assembling biomaterials for recreating biomimetic cellular environments and instructing cells to grow into functional tissues. These biomaterials can be easily injected inside microfluidic devices, being able to form in situ (e.g. particular channel).
