154 Functional Interfaces to Control Pathogenic or Beneficial Microbes


Description:
The session revolves around the advances in the design of antimicrobial and antifouling materials used in reconstructive medicine or implantable devices. It will also highlight techniques including drug delivery, super-hydrophobicity, topographic and chemical modification used to develop medical interfaces that promote healing and prevent or reduce microbial infections.
