Tissue engineering for skin regeneration combines principles of cell biology, materials science and bioengineering to develop functional substitutes for damaged or lost skin. Central to this field are ...

Bio-engineered skin grafts can play an important role in the treatment of burn victims. Researchers at the University of Zurich have been working on new approaches for such grafts for over 15 years.

Skin tissue engineering harnesses the regenerative potential of stem cells to restore form and function to damaged or diseased skin. Pluripotent stem cells, mesenchymal stem cells and adipose-derived ...

Burn, trauma, and plastic surgery patients and others needing skin autografts often have limited quantities of healthy tissue from which to take skin biopsies, and when skin grafts are transplanted, ...

Imagine a skin cream that heals damage occurring throughout the day when your skin is exposed to sunlight or environmental toxins. That’s the potential of a synthetic, biomimetic melanin developed by ...

Forward-looking: Swedish scientists are pushing regenerative medicine closer to a breakthrough that could one day allow doctors to rebuild living skin, complete with blood vessels. Building on years ...

A team of researchers from China has made a significant breakthrough in biomedical engineering by developing a novel adhesive that promises to revolutionize wound management and tissue repair. The ...

UGR scientists have demonstrated the efficacy and viability of the artificial skin UGRSKIN, an advanced therapy medicinal product (ATMP) they developed in 2012, which has proven to be highly ...
