In tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, the conditions in the immediate vicinity of
the cells have a direct effect on cells' behaviour and subsequently on clinical outcomes …

When using polymer materials as scaffolds for tissue engineering or regenerative medicine
applications the initial, and often lasting, interaction between cells and the material are via …

Previous studies have demonstrated that multi-walled carbon nanotubes grown out of
anodized nanotubular titanium (MWNT–Ti) can be used as a sensing electrode for various …

The development of three‐dimensional, spatially defined neuronal cultures that mimic
chemical and physical attributes of native tissue is of considerable interest for various …

Nanowire FETs (NWFETs) are promising building blocks for nanoscale bioelectronic
interfaces with cells and tissue since they are known to exhibit exquisite sensitivity in the …

The effects of surface topography on cell behaviour are the subject of intense research in
cell biology. These effects have so far only been studied using substrate surfaces of …

Tissue engineering provides a valuable tool for in vitro investigation of complex in vivo
environments. A particular application of tissue-engineered in vitro platforms in …

We engineered surfaces that permit the adhesion and directed growth of neuronal cell
processes but that prevent the adhesion of astrocytes. This effect was achieved based on …

Direct Laser Interference Patterning is an emerging technology capable to produce micro-
and nanostructured surfaces on a wide variety of materials. Although, this method has …

By quantitatively comparing a variety of macromolecular surface coating agents, we
discovered that surface coating strongly modulates the adhesion and morphogenesis of …
