Novel materials for ankle ligament repair
Chronic ankle instability affects about 30% of patients who have experienced a severe ankle sprain. Around 60% of these will have degeneration of the ankle and develop osteoarthritis - a debilitating condition. Read more
Multifunctional Biomaterials to Combat Infection and Modulate Inflammation
Implantable medical devices are commonplace in modern medicine (e.g. joint replacements, stents, artificial heart valves, etc.), and are of ever increasing interest in the field of regenerative medicine. Read more
Dissecting the role of novel haematopoietic factors in development and disease
Blood is made up of different cell types with different functions, such as carrying oxygen (red blood cells), help with wound healing (platelets) and fighting infections (white blood cells). Read more
Injectable hydrogels for cartilage repair
The aim of this project is to develop a peptide/chondroitin sulfate-based hydrogel biomaterial which can be injected into damaged cartilage and restore tissue biomechanics. Read more
Development of bioinspired robotic flapper
This project aims to take a bioinspired approach to develop a novel flapper based on the structure of the insect flight motor. Rotary engines, as seen in most aircraft, operate poorly at small scales due to increased friction and power requirements. Read more
