Research Overview

Responses of “excitable” cells (nerve cell) to biochemical, electrical and topographic cues in terms of enhanced neural differentiation and oriented neurite outgrowth.

Current research activities involve the development of a biodegradable polymer coating containing chelating agents which can control the degradation of metal alloy stents. I am response for in vitro cell culture studies involving growth of smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells on different alloys as well as polymer-modified materials.
