Seminar "Electrically deformable soft scaffolds for tissue engineering" - Prof. Federico Carpi

12 am - Meeting room, III floor, DIMEAS - Politecnico di Torino

Prof. Federico Carpi (University of Florence) will present a seminar on the use of ElectroActive Polymers (EAPs) for the development of electrically deformable soft scaffolds. These innovative materials are designed to mimic not only the structural but also the dynamic mechanical properties of biological tissues, with potential applications in muscle, cardiac, and lung tissue engineering.
The seminar will focus on electromechanically active systems capable of delivering controlled mechanical stimulation to cell cultures, offering new opportunities in advanced regenerative medicine.
It also highlights the potential of EAPs as lightweight, scalable, and cost-effective technologies for biomedical applications.
