1D: Fibrous Biomaterials in Tissue Engineering

Date: Wednesday, April 9, 2025
Time: 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM
Room: BLVD A
Session Type: General Session

Description

Fibrous biomaterials represent a dynamic and rapidly evolving field at the intersection of materials science, biology, and engineering, dedicated to developing innovative solutions for complex medical challenges. From traditional bandages and gauzes to advanced vascular grafts, tendon patches, drug delivery systems, and tissue engineering scaffolds, fibrous biomaterials have revolutionized various aspects of medical treatment and procedures. This session will highlight the design, fabrication, characterization and use of fibrous biomaterials for use in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications.
