For biomedical, bioengineering, biotechnology, marine or equivalent science graduates, I am interested in supervising projects related to any area of bone biomaterial development, bone tissue engineering and bone regenerative medicine. Some examples are, although not limited to just these areas: In vitro and in vivo responses to novel ceramic or polymer biomaterials for orthopaedic applications such as synthetic bone substitutes or fracture fixation devices Identifying novel bioactives with osteogenic activity, e.g. derived from natural products or marine organisms Addressing the challenges of applying stem cell therapies to bone repair e.g. patient variability in bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cell populations For nursing and other clinically focussed students, I am interested in supervising any projects related to orthopaedics and metabolic bone conditions e.g. Outcomes for patients undergoing orthopaedic procedures, e.g. outcomes of joint replacement surgery for different patient groups Patient attitudes to novel therapies such as bioresorbable polymer fracture fixation devices or stem cell therapies | School of Nursing and Midwifery | |
