Strategies for Directing the Biological Response to Biomaterial Surfaces by Design
This presentation will consider how surface engineering approaches can be used as part of biomedical device design to provide active chemistries and micro-, meso- and nano-scale surface features on hard and soft biomaterials that can promote and support the types of cellular process required for tissue formation. In particular, the need to develop accessible, validated and cost-effective methods to facilitate these smart surfaces is addressed. Exemplar studies from past and current research activities will be used to show how targeted surface engineering can be used to guide the progression of cell response and how this may allow for translation to more effective implant performance.
