Tissue engineering of a right heart outflow valve
TEH-TUBE (Tissue Engineering of the Right Heart Outflow Tract by a Biofunctionalized Bioresorbable Polymeric Valved Tube) is an international collaborative research and development project between seven European organisations and funded via the EU's FP7 scheme. It is focused on addressing the limitations in current treatment options for congenital heart defects in children and young adults.
Computationally designed templates for exquisite control of polymorphic form
