Strategic Objectives
• Master the principles of peptide amphiphile self-assembly.
• Design bioactive scaffolds that mimic the extracellular matrix.
• Harness hydrogen bonding for structural integrity in nanomedicine.
• Accelerate tissue regeneration through targeted molecular signals.
The Core Challenge
Traditional synthetic implants often fail to integrate with human tissue, leading to rejection or limited healing.
