Amel and Ambn, on progenitor cells and mesenchymal tissue regeneration

Zhu Hao from Huazhong University of Science and Technology joined our group for one and a half years to teach us about Chinese traditions and cuisine (and do a bit of science at the side).

Aman S Chahal has publicly defended his doctoral dissertation From inert to active: biofunctionalised PEG hydrogels to guide stem cell behaviour. Department of Biomaterials congratulates Aman on his great achievement!

Anne Klemm has publicly defended her doctoral dissertation Doped TiO2 bone scaffolds - corrosion resistance combined with high compressive strength. Department of Biomaterials congratulates Anne on her great achievement!

Department of Biomaterials brings light to the dark days of winter by organising an exciting scientific on nano-biomaterials seminar.

The seminar raise awareness on nano-biomaterials and to create a meeting place and arena for networks amongst the scientists in Norway working with nano-biomaterials and world leading scientists in the field.

The seminar is open for all participants and we strongly encourage both users and patient of nano-biomaterials to participate to the seminar.

Biomaterials hosts an open seminar on the use of extracellular vesicles and platelet lysate in cell free regenerative therapies and as cost-effective cell culture supplement.

After a long wait, the sun is shining on us again and our lab is getting back to more or less normal activity over the summer. 

Florian Weber has publicly defended his doctoral dissertation Development of multifunctional polyphenolic coatings for improved peri-implant healing. Department of Biomaterials congratulates Florian on his great achievement!

Victor A. Jankowski's master thesis on polyphenolic nanocoatings for dental implants won this year's best master thesis award at the Faculty of Dentistry. Well done, Victor!

Manuel Schweikle was awarded His Majesty the King's Gold Medal for his outstanding PhD thesis focusing on developing mineralised hydrogels for regenerating bone tissue around dental implants. 

Usame Sevgi from Dicle University in Turkey joined our group for three months, bringing along some Turkish delight and an healthy appetite for science.

Dyala Bakir's master thesis on polyphenolic nanocoatings for dental implants won this year's best master thesis award at the Faculty of Dentistry. Well done, Dyala!

The Department of Biomaterials has succeeded in attracting considerable funding and acknowledgment over the last ten years with a cumulative funding of 15 million Euros. The department has coordinated several EU and nationally founded project on various type o application from novel bone grafts, implant surface coatings, debridement strategies for infected implants, dental membrane, degradable metals, biomolecule for improved bone healing, soft tissue grafts and others.
