In this talk, the speaker will explore the future of health care through the lens of Tissue Engineering, Regenerative Medicine, and Precision Medicine. These approaches offer promising therapies for a wide range of diseases and traumas, while also enabling the development of advanced 3D disease models—including for cancer—that can reduce reliance on animal testing. The speaker will discuss the role of innovative materials, stem cell integration, and cutting-edge processing techniques in creating bioresponsive therapies, implants, and research models. Drawing on groundbreaking work by the 3B’s Research Group, the talk highlights key breakthroughs at the intersection of biology and engineering.
