Multi-Functional Macromers for Hydrogel Design in Biomedical Engineering and Regenerative Medicine

Multi-Functional Macromers for Hydrogel Design in Biomedical Engineering and Regenerative Medicine

Contemporary biomaterials are expected to provide tailored mechanical, biological and structural cues to encapsulated or invading cells in regenerative applications. In addition, the degradative properties of the material also have to be adjustable to the desired application. Oligo- or polymeric bui...
