Convergence of biological and electronics materials for bioelectronic
platforms
B
ringing together electronics
and biology materials on a
single platform can pave for highly
sensitive and novel biomedical
devices and clinical applications.
Different morphologies, materials
and composites are being combined
to have added functionalities and
customized interfaces for various
bio-medical and bioengineering
applications. The field of bioelectronics is further fueled by innovations in electronics,
biotechnology and has received a strong boost with the advent of 3D bioprinting
technology. 3D printing is driving the bio-medical industry with specifications such
as user customization, cost-effectiveness and short response time. The talk will focus
on novel bio- and electronic materials and processes to bring them together for added
functionality and wider applications. The talk will bring to light formulation of the
electronic nano- and biomaterials and how to synergistically incorporate them on a single
platform to perform pre-defined tasks and provide information relevant to instrument
novel biomedical devices. The talk will also discuss leveraging on 3D printing techniques
for tissue engineering and biocompatible biomedical platforms. We report printing,
optimization and characterization of electronic tracks on bio-scaffolds for making
complete bio-medical devices to understand printing capability on such platforms. The
platforms provide biocompatible, flexible and robust base for the electronic circuits to be
laid down. The fabricated devices and platforms are compatible with cells and tissues are
cheap, easy to fabricate and do not require any post-processing.
