Programming physical and biological cues to promote vessel growth

该项目旨在设计新的基于水凝胶的生物材料，允许对物理和生物线索进行时空调制，以指导血管生长，并与先进的生物打印平台兼容。它将在生物材料、生物制造和先进材料加工方面产生新的知识。预期成果包括生物材料-血管相互作用方面的新知识、新型血管生物墨水、跨学科、国际合作和研究培训。该项目将通过新材料和尖端制造平台为澳大利亚的学术产出和声誉带来重大好处，并为生物医学、兽医和化妆品带来长期好处。

This project aims to engineer new hydrogel-based biomaterials that allow spatio-temporal modulation of physical and biological cues to direct blood vessels growth, as well as compatible with advanced bioprinting platforms. It will generate new knowledge in biomaterials, biofabrication and advanced material processing. Expected outcomes include new knowledge in biomaterial-vascular interaction, novel vascular bioinks, cross-disciplinary, international collaboration and research training. This project will provide significant benefit to Australia's scholarly output and reputation, as well as long term benefits to biomedical, veterinary and cosmetic through new materials and cutting-edge manufacturing platforms.
