DrIan Woods

Research Fellow and Principal Investigator of the Biomimetic Design Lab in the Tissue Engineering Research Group (TERG) . TERG specializes in the development of biomaterial scaffolds which act as platforms for an array of applications in regenerative medicine, drug delivery and the development of in vitro models of disease. My work centres on the use of biomaterials and cutting-edge biofabrication technologies to develop implant-based therapeutics which mimic therapeutically-relevant aspects of neural tissue. My group is working on projects involving (i) electroconductive biomaterials (ii) gene therapeutics (iii) in vitro models of neurological disease and (iv) medical device design.
