CITES: Cosmology Inspired Tissue Engineering Scaffolds

Reference #:

2006-073

Inventors/Contributors

Srinivasan Rajagopalan Ph.D., Richard A. Robb Ph.D.

Description

We disclose a method which mimics the primordial processes which initiated the morphogenesis of the now stable universe as the ab initio model to create tissue engineering templates that can be virtually refined to create optimal scaffold models. The optimized scaffolds can be directly printed with any of the rapid prototyping devices. The disclosed invention synergistically exploits the current orthogonal scaffold fabrication techniques to create repeatable, biomorphic scaffolds with optimal biomimetic morphology.
