Investigating the interaction between immune cells and biomaterial scaffolds
A plethora of biomaterial scaffolds are researched worldwide for a broad range of tissue applications but consideration of their immune compatibility is… Read more
Advanced Biomaterial for Preventing Catheter-Associated Infections
Urinary catheters are used as soon as a patient cannot control urine drain as a consequence of incontinence or urine retention. Read more
Design and fabrication of a smart biomaterial device with artificial niches for aiding corneal healing
Corneal disease affects millions of people worldwide with higher prevalence in developing countries. Corneal transplantation and the use of membranes as cell carriers (amniotic membrane, AM) have been relatively successful. Read more
Cell stretching to produce in vitro aligned implantable scaffolds to regenerate peripheral nerve and spine
In this project we will explore a novel treatment strategy for both peripheral nerve injury (PNI) and spinal cord injury (SCI). Spinal cord and peripheral nerve injuries are often debilitating injuries with a high incidence. Read more
Developing synergistic strategies by combining bactericidal nanotopography with biophysical stimulation to combat biomaterials associated infections
Biomaterials such as titanium metal and its alloys have been widely used in permanent implants and medical devices to restore or support human functions. Read more
Developing novel fibre/gel composites to support conjunctiva repair
Conjunctival injury can severely diminish a patient’s quality of life. The overall aim of this project is to restore that patient’s quality of life by implanting a synthetic conjunctival graft to repair and regenerate lost or damaged tissue. Read more
Functionalisation of PEEK used as a scaffold material enhancing cell proliferation in the rehabilitation of critical size bone defects
Tissue defects resulting from surgical resection (cancer), trauma or congenital disease often require bone implant treatments. The current gold standard treatment is autologous reconstruction, but this comes with limitations such as a limited supply, donor site comorbidity and, unpredictable resorption during healing.

[UoM / IISc Joint Award] 3D Printed Bone Scaffolds Based on Collagen and Hydroxyapatite by Powder Bed Printing
This innovative project proposes to develop ideal bone mimicking scaffolds using two principal components, collagen and hydroxyapatite (HA). Read more
3D printing of drug delivery implants
Additive manufacturing (AM) encompasses a wide range of processes that create structures through deposition or binding of materials in successive layers to produce a 3D object. Read more
Advanced biomaterials for future-proof pharmaceutical formulations
While traditional, small molecule drugs continue to play a significant role due to their oral bioavailability, they also suffer from lower selectivity, frequently accompanied with side-effects. Read more
PhD on Innovative Biomaterials for Therapeutics and Diagnostics
Prof Molly Stevens FRS FREng is looking for talented students with backgrounds in chemistry, engineering, cell biology, physics, materials science or medicine to join her highly-stimulating, multidisciplinary research lab at the Departments of Materials and Bioengineering at Imperial College London.
