Biography

Chris is a chemist by training, completing his undergraduate degree in Chemistry with Medicinal Chemistry at the University of Glasgow in 2014, before moving to the University of Edinburgh for his PhD, which involved the development of new methods for the selective modification of native sequence proteins. Since joining Biogelx earlier this year, Chris has worked primarily on the development of a new range of bioinks, using the core Biogelx oligopeptide technology to produce printable formulations suitable for additive manufacturing applications.

3D hydrogels and bio-inks for realistic in-vitro modelling and bio-printing

Author(s):

Elia Lopez-Bernardo, Chris Allan and Rein Ulijn

Biogelx have developed innovative biomaterials which offer artificial tissue environments for a range of 3D cell culture and bio-printing applications. The technology platform is based on peptide hydrogels and bio-inks which contain ECM-relevant ligands and are highly tuneable. They are three-dimensional (3D), contain 99% water and have the same Nano scale matrix structure as human tissue. Biogelx biomaterials are non-animal derived and their surface chemistry and mechanical properties can be tuned to meet the needs of any given cell or tissue type. In more detail; these novel hydrogels and bio-inks form a Nano fibrous network mimicking the extracellular matrix, which supports cell function, signalling, and proliferation. Moreover, they have been developed and improved to ensure the rhe... view more»
