Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine: Grundlagen und Anwendungen

What it is about

In this module you will learn the fundamentals and applications of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. You will understand how materials, cells, biomanufacturing and bioreactors are combined to develop tissues, and you will be able to evaluate strategies for (re)generation of tissues and organs and apply them to clinical questions.

What you will be able to do

• Understand principles of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine
• Evaluate advantages and disadvantages of existing strategies
• Apply tissue engineering principles to solve medical problems
• Provide justification for the use of cells, biomaterials and stimuli
• Know current clinical applications for different tissues/organs
• Analyze current challenges in the field
• Formulate regulatory aspects
