Biomaterials for Regenerative Engineering 3

Timeslot: Friday, April 29, 2022 - 1:30pm to 3:30pm
Room: Harborside Ballroom A-B, 4th Floor

About

Regenerative engineering aims to develop functional, bioactive, and instructive biomaterials and approaches for the regeneration of tissues through a convergence of engineering, medicine, developmental biology, and stem cell science. This symposium will highlight recent trends in developing functional biomaterials that play an active role in controlling cellular behaviors and tissue regeneration. We will include different classes of biomaterials such as proteins, polysaccharides, synthetic polymers, fibers, metals, ceramics, and hydrogels for applications in regenerative engineering. This session will also highlight the biomaterials that can direct cell fate and promote differentiation. Moreover, the biomaterials that can facilitate drug delivery and immunomodulation will be covered through oral and poster presentations. During the symposium, translational strategies for handling these biomaterials from ‘Bench to Bedside’ will also be addressed. We expect that our interdisciplinary session, including material science, chemistry, biology, engineering, and medicine, will be of great significance to clinicians, industry members, and academia.

Room: Laurel A-B, 4th Floor

About

As the need for commercially-viable biomaterials grow so does an emphasis on characterization, evaluation, and commercial-scale manufacturing. Designing and developing novel biomaterials with commercial viability in mind from the beginning is key in successfully bringing materials to market. This session will highlight novel characterization approaches as well as discuss current practices in biomaterial evaluations. Presentations will also focus on material evaluation for regulatory submissions and methods of commercial-scale manufacturing. This topic would be helpful for researchers who are interested in developing their materials/devices for translational applications. We will discuss how to translate innovative research into commercial viability with a focus on: • Characterization methods for novel materials • Discussion of current regulatory approaches • Designing materials with the end goal of commercialization

Smart Biomaterials for Drug Delivery

Timeslot: Friday, April 29, 2022 - 1:30pm to 3:30pm
Room: Kent A-C, 4th Floor

About

Smart biomaterials (i.e., targeted and/or stimuli-responsive) have great potential for efficient delivery of therapeutics, increasing therapeutic activity, while avoiding biological barriers and decreasing toxicity and other adverse effects like drug resistance. Both endogenous and exogeneous stimuli have been utilized to trigger stimuli-responsive materials including pH, temperature, ionic strength, chemical and/or mechanical microenvironment, redox potential, and light. Similarly, many targeting mechanisms ranging from passive (e.g., enhanced permeation and retention) to active targeting approaches (e.g., antibody, nucleic acid, peptide ligand functionalization) have been integrated into targeted drug delivery systems. This session will focus on the development and use of such materials for applications including, but not limited to, cancer, and infectious, orthopedic, ophthalmic, and autoimmune diseases.

Tissue Engineering (SIG) 1

Timeslot: Friday, April 29, 2022 - 1:30pm to 3:30pm
Room: Dover A-C, 3rd Floor

About

The field of tissue engineering has made significant progress in the last two decades through the development of novel biomaterials and three-dimensional scaffold fabrication methods. Efforts to engineer cell niches to control cell behavior over multiple length scales and precisely guide tissue regeneration have advanced the field. To achieve this, a diverse range of novel technologies have been leveraged, including 3D bioprinting, electrospinning, microfluidics, light-based patterning, and directed assembly, to enable notable progress in controlled release and spatial presentation of biomolecules, organ integration, production of tissue models, single cell-level presentation of microenvironmental cues, and molecular-level control of biomaterial composition. This session will highlight recent trends in novel biomaterials and scaffold development and advanced biofabrication techniques towards the development of sophisticated tool kits for tissue engineers
