Project description

The project focuses on the design of Lab-on-a-chip systems to promote the phenomenon of angiogenesis; this will be complemented by the modeling of cellular automata to replicate and approximate the expected behavior in angiogenesis.

The chips should be respect the conditions to ensure the biomimetic required for the development of basic process of the cells. For prototyping of the models will be used FFF technology with biocompatible material.
