Project description
 

The aim of the project is to apply the Bioplotter TM rapid prototyping technology to develop a series of perfectly interconnecting polymer materials. The materials are intended to be applied in the field of myocardium regeneration for patients suffering from a myocardial infarct. During the project, both synthetic and biopolymers will be evaluated and compared.
