Cardiovascular Biomaterials in Regenerative Medicine

Katja Schenke-Layland is the Professor of Biomaterials in Cardiovascular Regenerative Medicine in the Medical Faculty of the Eberhard Karls University Tübingen. The objective of the professorship is to strengthen the cooperation between basic research, performed at the Inter-University Centre for Medical Technology (IZST) at the Eberhard Karls University Tübingen, and the product-oriented research carried out at the Fraunhofer IGB Stuttgart. Together, and with the support of the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft, the Schenke-Layland lab aims to develop critical applications for the fields of tissue engineered biomaterials, cardiovascular regenerative medicine and optical technologies.
