Abstract

The session on “Thermal and electrohydrodynamic processes for Tissue Engineering Applications” includes the seminar on “Electrospun nanostructured scaffolds for tissue engineering applications” and this workshop which will be used as discussion on the recent growth interest for thermal and electrohydrodynamic processes (including fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printing and electrospinning) for tissue engineering applications. 3D printing and electrospinning are examples of technologies that have been widely used in other industries, especially in the recent years, however are new to tissue engineering & regenerative medicine. The development of biocompatible systems for 3D printing and electrospun materials have been promising in the recent years for tissue engineering applications, which makes these techniques an attractive technology in the field. The purpose of this workshop is to familiarize participants with current thermal and electrohydrodynamic processes (e.g. 3D Printing, Bioprinting, Electrospinning), on the current additive manufacturing (AM) practices for biopolymers, on the modeling / finite element analysis (FEA) of AM systems, and about advanced surface characterization techniques.
