Tissue Engineering (TE) strategies combining stem cells, biomaterial scaffolds, and biochemical/physical cues have emerged as promising approaches for the repair/replacement of injured tissues and ...

Bio-engineered skin grafts can play an important role in the treatment of burn victims. Researchers at the University of Zurich have been working on new approaches for such grafts for over 15 years.

The engineered skin tissue and the way it adheres to the underlying complex structure of the robot’s features were inspired by skin ligaments in human tissues. Researchers have found a way to bind ...

As a result of their potential to imitate natural growth factors and stimulate cellular activity, peptides have emerged as potential components in regenerative cell action and dermatological research.

The UGR press conference (which was chaired by the Rector of the UGR, Pedro Mercado) was attended by Álvaro Trigo Puig, one of the patients who received the artificial skin implant in 2018. UGR ...

The woman’s burns are severe, essentially eradicating the skin from more than half of her body. Every layer of this complex tissue must therefore be replaced with grafts. These need to be harvested ...

UGR scientists have demonstrated the efficacy and viability of the artificial skin UGRSKIN, an advanced therapy medicinal product (ATMP) they developed in 2012, which has proven to be highly ...
