  • A Biomineralization Platform to Regenerate Dental Enamel

    • 25 May 2018

    We have developed a biomineralization platform that uses the ordered and disordered sections of a protein to create an organic framework capable of recruiting calcium and phosphate ions, nucleating nanocrystals, and guiding their growth hierarchically into functional materials (www.nature.com/articles/s41467-018-04319-0). The platform has potential to generate treatments for enamel repair and regeneration.

Mata Group Bioengineering

We are a highly interdisciplinary group passionate about developing creative and innovative technologies to generate creative solutions for a variety of bioengineering applications. We use interdisciplinary approaches that integrate engineering, materials science, chemistry, nanotechnology, biology, and medicine to develop materials and devices with hierarchical order, biomimetic character, spatio-temporal control, adaptability, tuneability, self-healing capacity, and functionality. Current research in our lab includes the development of in vitro biomimetic environments, dynamic and directed self-assembling systems, molecular patterning of 3D environments, and molecularly-designed bioactive implants. Applications range from tissue engineering and regenerative medicine to drug discovery.
