Dr Penny Martens is a Senior Lecturer with the Graduate School of Biomedical Engineering. Her research focuses on the use of biosynthetic hydrogels for a variety of biomedical applications, including diabetes treatment, neural electrodes and cartilage repair.
研究领域
Level 1: I take materials (very similar to soft contact lenses) and use them to replace various tissues inside the body.
Level 2: I design and create hydrogel materials for engineering replacement tissues.
Level 3: I combine synthetic and natural polymers in order to exploit the benefits of each for improved cell survival in 3D constructs.
