Designing and fabricating electrospun fibrous scaffolds of biodegradable polymers for applications in tissue regeneration and controlled drug delivery.
Electrospinning allows the creation of fibrous networks mimicking the extracellular matrix, which can be functionalized with nanostructured coatings to enhance bioactivity or antimicrobial properties.

We have produced nanostructured hydroxyapatite-coated fibers for bone interface regeneration, and silver-decorated polymeric fibers with antibacterial properties via ionized jet deposition. These materials combine biocompatibility, mechanical stability, and tunable drug release characteristics.

We are currently developing new biodegradable electrospun polymers for the topical delivery of active molecules and genetic material. Stay tuned!
