Colloquium Tumour Tissue Engineering, December 3, 2024, 1-5 pm, conference hall IPF

Tissue engineering has produced innovative tools for cancer research. 3D cancer models based on molecularly designed biomaterials aim to harness the dimensionality and biomechanical and biochemical properties of tumour tissues. However, despite the critical role that the tumour microenvironment plays, only a minority of current 3D cancer models are built on biomaterial-based matrices. Major reasons for avoiding this critical design feature are the difficulty in recreating the cellular complexity of the tumour microenvironment and the limited availability of practical analytical and validation techniques. The colloquium aims to foster collaboration and knowledge exchange among researchers across the Dresden Life Science Campus that are working on cancer-relevant topics, e.g. stromal and immune cell interactions, patient-derived organoids, multifunctional polymer materials, cell metabolism, biophysics and imaging modalities. – Join us to discuss and explore the latest advancements in Tumour Tissue Engineering!
