At the end of this course the student will have acquired knowledge, skills and competencies that allow him to design and write a research project in the areas of tissue engineering and in vitro models (organoids) for disease studies and evaluation of drugs and cosmetics.
For this, the student will have acquired knowledge about:
- biomaterials - polymers and ceramics of natural or synthetic origin;
- scaffold production techniques;
- types of cells (stem and adult) used in the construction of organoids and substitutes;
- the problem of the vascularization of organoids and organ / tissue substitutes
- models and skin substitutes for Regenerative Medicine and evaluation of cosmetics.
- development of organoid as models for the study of diseases
The student will also have acquired skills:
- in the production of 3D structures for iVM and TE;
- in the physical-chemical characterization of scaffolds;
- in the culture of animal cells;
- in seeding and analysis of cell cultures in biomaterials.
