Svenja Meissner: The development of a hydrogel-based ultrasound-triggered delivery system for neurotrophic growth factors

<p>Neurotrophic growth factors (NF) have a wide range of promising biological functions, including improved recovery after spinal cord injury. Challenges in using NFs for tissue engineering include rapid degradation and off-target effects. Spatial-temporal-controlled, hydrogel-based NF delivery systems might help by protecting NFs and releasing NFs on demand. </p> <p>This poster was uploaded for the SGS Research Showcase 2022.  </p> <p>Choose your favourite poster for the <a href="https://auckland.au1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_8613JNN2s8WgO1g" target="_blank">SGS Research Showcase People's Choice Award: Academic Poster category</a>.</p>
