This project focuses on developing a self-healing biomimetic adhesive hydrogel for treating degenerative intervertebral discs. The hydrogel aims to restore the natural properties of spinal tissue, potentially improving outcomes for patients suffering from lower back pain.
Lower back pain is a global epidemiological and socioeconomic problem.
This project envisions a future whereby patients with degenerated intervertebral discs are injected with a self-healing biomimetic adhesive biomaterial which can restore both the biochemical and biomechanical properties to native tissue levels.
