We are an interdisciplinary group working on developing supramolecular biomaterials and fabrication processes to tackle challenges in regenerative medicine

University of Nottingham
Check out our Perspective on emerging #biofabrication and #biomanufacturing technologies, with @ArnoldLiningJu With innovative design & system #EngineeringBio, we hope to move closer to making functional human tissues and organs at scale.

Couldn't be prouder about having Jeffrey Hubbell @nyutandon, a #bioengineer & a giant in #biomaterials, in our 1st @MOBILIsE_EU symposium @i3S_UPorto. He is developing innovative biomaterials to stimulate the #immune system to fight #cancer or #infection.
📢Thrilled to announce the plenary speaker of @MOBILIsE_EU Symposium in #MolecularBioengineering focused on #Immunoengineering!💡Prof Hubbell uses biomaterials & protein engineering to explore regenerative medicine and immunotherapeutics solutions! 👀bit.ly/4fYZVH9

Studying water's behaviour is tricky – how do you distinguish between a hydrogen-bonded water and an unbonded one? New research has used x-ray Raman scattering spectroscopy to detect changes in local hydrogen-bonding, as @philipcball explores. chemistryworld.com/opinion/a…

Elegant work Cosimo!
Happy to share our latest publication on J Mater Chem B. Here, we developed a gentle method to disassemble self-assembling peptide hydrogels, allowing high-yield recovery of encapsulated cells for further cell manipulation. @Mata_Lab @AOCMF_BOOST @NottmBRC bit.ly/4eINU8A
