This project develops innovative polymer surfaces inspired by gecko adhesion for medical applications, particularly in repairing tympanic membrane injuries. The technology aims to provide a new therapeutic option that enhances healing and supports cell growth, potentially transforming treatment for hearing loss.
The ERC ADG “Engineering of biomimetic surfaces – Switchable micropatterns for controlled adhesion and touch” (SWITCH2STICK) has developed micropatterned polymer surfaces for innovative adhesive functions without glues, based on the “gecko adhesion principle”.
While robotic applications were originally in the focus of these developments, a radically new application field of these microstructures will be taken to the initial steps of application and subsequent commercialization: the repair of inj…
