| Cell
& Tissue Engineering — Tissue engineers
combine the principles and methods of engineering and biology
to develop biological constructs that are the basis of a future
regenerative medicine. To accomplish this goal tissue engineers
combine cells, biological growth factors, and scaffolding
materials based to create nascent biological structures that
can restore a biological function, such as insulin production,
or stimulate the body to regenerate the tissue such as the
repair of damaged articular cartilage. |
