Can we engineer the materials required to regrow human tissue?
In short: In this session from The Royal Institution, experts Pamela Habibović and Paolo De Coppi address audience questions regarding the complex mechanics of tissue regeneration and the role of DNA in protein encoding.
The discussion explores the intersection of inorganic biomaterials and cellular colonisation, specifically examining the moulds required for such processes. Professor Pamela Habibović details her research into using inorganic biomaterials for tissue regeneration and theranostics, alongside microfluidics-based approaches for high-throughput screening.
The session also features insights from Paolo De Coppi, a Consultant Paediatric Surgeon at Great Ormond Street Hospital and a leader in stem cell research at the UCL Institute of Child Health, providing a broader context for the future of regenerative medicine.
