New materials and repair concepts for peripheral nerve injury are necessary to reduce it's burden of devastating paralysis and sensory loss, with costs to the individual, their families, communities and national health systems. To address the neurobiology of the injury and improve recovery we look for someone to develop novel scaffold materials combined with commercial systems that release neurotrophic factors. This project aims to deliver new research to direct translation to nerve repair in a collaboration between School of Chemistry and the School of Molecular Biosciences. Due to the interdisciplinary nature of the project involves a wide range of techniques, from small molecule synthesis and characterization, to mechanical and electrical testing of new synthesized materials, cell biology and the unique chance of a placement in an industrial setting.

周围神经损伤的新材料和修复概念是必要的，以减轻其毁灭性瘫痪和感觉丧失的负担，并给个人、他们的家庭、社区和国家卫生系统带来成本。为了解决损伤的神经生物学问题并促进康复，我们希望有人开发新型支架材料，并结合商业系统释放神经营养因子。该项目旨在提供新的研究，在化学学院和分子生物科学学院的合作下，直接转化为神经修复。由于该项目的跨学科性质涉及广泛的技术，从小分子合成和表征，到新合成材料的机械和电气测试，细胞生物学，以及在工业环境中放置的独特机会。
