Topic: Melt Electrowriting of Bioinspired Scaffolds for Cardiovascular Tissue Engineering.
Speaker: Kilian Müller, Doctoral Candidate (Mela Group)
Date and Time: Tuesday, 12 July 2022, 1:00 pm
Abstract: Melt Electrowriting (MEW) is an electric field assisted fiber forming technology that has proven to be a valuable tool for additive manufacturing (AM) of bioinspired scaffolds for cardiovascular tissue engineering. By combining electrohydrodynamic fiber forming with accurate deposition control in a layer-by-layer fashion, MEW allows to fabricate precisely defined 3D scaffold architectures from polymer microfibers. This talk presents MEW as a micro-AM technique and highlights recent advances in the design and fabrication of MEW scaffolds for cardiovascular tissue engineering. To this end, a digital design platform for the automatized generation of toolpaths for MEW is introduced, and the actual scaffold fabrication strategies are discussed. Furthermore, the structure-property relationships of such scaffolds are elucidated both from a mechanical as well as a biological perspective.
