Biomaterial Scaffolds for Tissue Engineering I

Wednesday, November 10, 2010: 12:30 PM
150 G Room (Salt Palace Convention Center)

Description:
This first session encompasses the development and application of biomaterials as three-dimensional structural supports for the growth of tissues. Topics to be discussed include fabrication procedures, modification procedures to support cellular interactions, and drug delivery, along with the corresponding growth and development of engineered tissues.
