Project Aim:
This project aims to develop a novel electrospinning procedure that allows for nanofiber deposition onto a customizable 3-Dimensional collector. This collector shape would be modeled computationally from an image of a defect, made specifically for that wound shape and contours of the body. As proof of concept, we aspire to produce an optimal scaffold for tissue regeneration by testing various polymer solutions at a wide range of electrospinning parameters and comparing our customized results to those of a retrofitted planar sheet of polymer.
