This current research is focused on the biodegradable scaffolds that are a prerequisite for all living tissue engineering as a base structure on which living cells are deposited and ‘grown’. Traditionally, research in this area has utilized scaffolds that are constructed from biologically-friendly, biodegradable solids or gels onto which the living cells are introduced. However, these solid and gel states do have limitations in terms of control and efficient growth of the cells — a liquid scaffold is one way that these limitations could be minimized and this is precisely what the team at Oxford has been working on.
