Building Drug and Gene Delivery Into Tissue Engineering


Description:
This session will focus on the development of new materials or methods for the controlled delivery of macromolecular therapeutics (proteins, DNA and siRNA) from cellular scaffolds. Appropriate topics would include new chemistries/methods for degradation-controlled release, layer-by-layer fabrication and release, cell-mediated therapeutic release, and other triggered release technologies. Further, the use of such technologies to achieve in vivo and ex vivo regenerative therapies or in vitro cell manipulation for other applications is also appropriate.
