Project description
The proposed project aims to develop 3D porous interconnective polymer scaffolds using the Bioplotter 'rapid prototyping' technology. The polymers developed will be applied as tissue engineering scaffolds. The proposed project combines the expertise from different research groups from the Ghent University and the Hogeschool Gent.
