Research interests

My research employs novel approaches in stem cells, hydrogels and porous scaffolds for the vascularization of engineered tissues and the development of 3D in vitro models to mimic the cellular microenvironment.

Research efforts of the group also focus on the investigation of the intricate cell-substrate and cell-extracellular matrix interactions for the design of novel bioactive materials for bone and nervous system regeneration.
