Scaffold-guided gene transfer offers strong systems to develop noninvasive convenient therapeutic options for the treatment of articular cartilage defects, especially when targeting bone marrow aspirates from patients containing chondroregenerative mesenchymal stromal cells in a native microenvironment. In this study, we

Articles

Professor Rivnay (Northwestern University, USA) discusses using organic mixed conductors as an alternative to efficiently bridge the ionic world of biology with contemporary microelectronics.

We present an article that discusses two applications in particular; first, using these layers as polyelectrolyte membranes to control permeability.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
