A Compressible Scaffold for Minimally Invasive Delivery of Large Intact Neuronal Networks

Philippe Renaud, Thomas Michael Braschler, Patrick Fraering, Oliver Peric, Georg Fantner, Sébastien Mosser, Amélie Barbara Hildegarde Béduer, Sidi Ahmed Bencherif

Millimeter to centimeter-sized injectable neural scaffolds based on macroporous cryogels are presented. The polymer-scaffolds are made from alginate and carboxymethyl-cellulose by a novel simple one-pot cryosynthesis. They allow surgical sterility by means ...

Soft nanofluidics governing minority ion exclusion in charged hydrogels

Fabien Patrick Wildhaber, Thomas Michael Braschler, Songmei Wu, Sidi Ahmed Bencherif

We investigate ionic partition of negatively charged molecular probes into also negatively charged, covalently crosslinked alginate hydrogels. The aim is to delimit the domain of validity of the major nanoelectrostatic models, and in particular to assess t ...

Injectable cryogel-based whole-cell cancer vaccines

Thomas Michael Braschler, Sidi Ahmed Bencherif

A biomaterial-based vaccination system that uses minimal extracorporeal manipulation could provide in situ enhancement of dendritic cell (DC) numbers, a physical space where DCs interface with transplanted tumour cells, and an immunogenic context. Here we ...

Advances in the design of macroporous polymer scaffolds for potential applications in dentistry

Philippe Renaud, Thomas Michael Braschler, Sidi Ahmed Bencherif

A paradigm shift is taking place in medicine and dentistry from using synthetic implants and tissue grafts to a tissue engineering approach that uses degradable porous three-dimensional (3D) material hydrogels integrated with cells and bioactive factors to ...
