The research group
The PhD student will be working in an interdisciplinary environment, in strong collaboration between clinical departments, experts within basic science and other national and international research groups.
Our approach is to use several strategies to re-create functional tissues by combining cells/tissue with different biomaterials and to evaluate wound healing responses. Eventually, wound healing and tissue reconstruction could be enhanced by actions of microRNAs in diseased tissues, such as malformations, inflammation, and scarring, that are in need for surgical reconstruction.
The doctoral student project and the duties of the doctoral student
There are several congenital conditions affecting the formation of vaginal canal. Tissue engineering may provide a way to improve surgical corrections and improve the wellbeing and reproductive capabilities of the affect population.
We have identified a knowledge gap on the biological mechanisms that determine a normal healing of the human vagina.
