Blood-Material Surface Interaction

We are working on feasable methods to grow endothelial cells on artificial surfaces. Together with the Laboratory of Thermodynamics in Emerging Technologies we seek to create a vascular-alike inner lining for next-gen medical implants with drastically improved biocompatibility.
