Multi-cue design strategies for neural tissue engineering and regeneration

I develop strategies for nerve regeneration that combine several cues to guide nerve cells at once: peptide hydrogels for chemical cues, biodegradable polymers shaped by 3D printing for topographical cues, and AI to design smarter scaffolds for nerve repair.
