  A dynamic biomaterial-ligand tethering strategy for tissue engineering
University of York Department of Chemistry
  Dr C Spicer, Prof D K Smith
Application Deadline: 9 January 2019
Biomaterials that can trigger the repair of damaged tissues have the potential to revolutionise the way we treat disease. Materials that can present cells and tissues with powerful biochemical signals, through attached peptides, proteins, and carbohydrates, are particularly effective at controlling regeneration.
