Biomaterials and Regenerative Engineering Laboratory
 
What do we do at BIREL?
Research at BIREL focuses on the design and fabrication of functional and biomimetic biomaterials, controlled release systems as well as wearable/implantable biosensors to be utilized for tissue regeneration. Regenerative engineering laden by stem/progenitor cell recruitment and utilization of Extracellular Matrix scaffolds for tissue/organ regeneration are also investigated at BIREL.
BIREL'S Research Interests:
  • Biomaterials synthesis, development, and processing
  • Biomaterials and tissue characterization
  • using mechanical and physical (biomechanical, rheological, thermal, aucistic), optical and radiation(optical, radiological, spectroscopic), structural and surface (micrsocopy, XRD, hydrophilicity, etc) techniques
  • Cell isolation, culture, and performance analysis
  • Differentiation, ECM synthesis, gene expression
  • Tissue repair, healing and regeneration
  • Wound healing/regeneration (war wounds), Orthopaedic (joints, interfaces), cardiac (patches), lung (alveolar-capillary junction)
  • Wearable and implantable biosensors for disease or repair/healing/regeneration detection
  • Tissue/Organ-on-a-chip (osteochondral, lung, kidney)
  • Biological microgravity
