DVIR LABORATORY

FOR TISSUE ENGINEERING AND REGENERATIVE MEDICINE

ABOUT THE LAB

In our lab, we focus on research and development of new technologies, based on cutting-edge materials and stem cells for engineering and regenerating tissues and organs.

We investigate approaches to control stem cells differentiation and assembly of functioning tissues, including the heart, brain, spinal cord, eyes, intestine and more. Among the technologies developed in our lab are 3D printing of tissues and organs, engineered tissues with built-in electronics, and development of personalized engineered tissue implants.
