Smart-release Green Tea Wound Dressing for Diabetic Wounds( Ref: WD_2022_23_WSCH)
Post summary. Chronic wounds such as those in diabetic patients have become a significant healthcare problem globally. These wounds do not usually heal within the normal healing time or after treatment, which is worst if the wound becomes infected. Read more
Computational study on the mechanics of surgical wound healing
Project description. Wound healing is a critical part of recovery and is determined primarily by wound care. Proper wound healing is important not only for aesthetic purposes (scarring minimization and prevention), but also in preventing infections and speeding up the recovery process. Read more
Dissecting the molecular mechanisms of neural–fibroblast interactions in wound healing
The skin and other epithelial surfaces such as the oral mucosa play a critical role as a barrier to pathogens and other environmental insults. Read more
Suspended additive manufacturing of complex wounds for precision therapy testing
Working in Partnership with industry. To apply for this programme, please visit. www.advanced-biomedical-materials-cdt.manchester.ac.uk. Read more
Drug-eluding Wound Care Products using Deep Eutectic and Reactive Extrusion
Surgical site infections (SSIs) cause severe problems and remain a major cause of postoperative mortality, particularly at incision sites that are considered ‘dirty-contaminated’ according to the CDC Surgical Wound Classification (SWC Class IV). Read more
Investigation of the role of molecular regulators during skin development and wound healing
Skin morphogenesis occurs under stringent control of epithelial-mesenchymal interactions and result in a formation of the epidermis and a number of different skin appendages (including, the hair follicle, HF). Read more
Application of animal corneal cells for skin regeneration, tissue engineering and wound healing enhancement
Research Group:
Centre for Skin Sciences
Engineering of biological skin substitutes has progressed over the years from individual applications of skin cells, or biopolymer scaffolds, to combinations of cells and scaffolds for treatment, healing, and closure of acute and chronic skin wounds. Read more
Role of cell death and necroinflammation in pulpal wound healing
Injury to the dental pulp is commonly encountered in clinical practice, but how injury induce inflammation and how the dental pulp heals after injury is not known. Read more
Silver ion-based antimicrobials: mechanisms of toxicity and resistance
The emergence and persistence of bacterial strains with resistance to multiple classes of antibiotics has led to renewed interest in the antimicrobial properties of silver ions. Read more
Body-on-a-chip: a novel approach to understanding antimicrobial resistance
Why is this research important? The 2019 World Health Organisation report on antimicrobial resistance (AMR)identifies AMR as one of the greatest threats we face as a global community. Read more
The role of extracellular vesicles in lung epithelial cell communication in health and disease
It is estimated that more than 1 bn people suffer from acute and chronic lung problems resulting in millions of deaths every year. Read more
Last chance to apply
Systems approach to dissecting the processes underlying skeletal muscle fibre formation
This project is available through the MIBTP programme. The successful applicant will join the MIBTP cohort and will take part in all of the training offered by the programme. For further details. Read more
Ingestible Origami Robots for Biomedicine
Soft robots that can be swallowed (ingested) and can accomplish various surgical tasks are no longer a fiction for engineering. Instead a medical doctor cutting and suturing, we expect robots to perform equivalent surgical operations. Read more
Exploiting the microRNA ‘signature’ of high density lipoproteins in cells and tissues: routes to novel therapeutics (Ref: SHLS21096)
The protective roles of high density lipoproteins (HDL) in inflammatory diseases (atherosclerosis, diabetes and impaired wound healing) has focused attention on the molecular mechanisms by which this heterogeneous lipoprotein class achieves these outcomes. Read more
Identification of the molecular pathways that guide zebrafish regeneration
The study of regenerative biology aims to elucidate the innate ability of organisms to replace tissues or organs after they have been removed or damaged. Read more
