Engineering Regeneration Sustainably: From Bioinspired Extracellular Matrices to Predictive Tissue Repair Platforms
This seminar will present sustainable regenerative medicine strategies that use bioinspired extracellular matrix systems, biomaterials, and predictive tissue-engineering platforms to guide cell behavior and support tissue repair. The talk will highlight how tunable matrix environments, transport-controlled organization, and translational biofabrication approaches can help bridge fundamental cell–matrix biology with scalable organ repair technologies.
Dr. Peter R. Corridon, is a member of Khalifa University’s Department of Biomedical Engineering and Biotechnology, who is at the forefront of regenerative medicine technologies that repurpose slaughterhouse waste into biotechnological advancements. With projects that echo the UAE’s commitment to eco-sustainability, he leads efforts to transform cameline and ovine tissues into medical grafts and extract valuable biomolecules to support tissue engineering and regenerative medicine strategies. His work, supported by Government of Abu Dhabi and international industrial partners, showcases the UAE’s drive towards a sustainable, non-oil-based economy. Also, as the Associate Dean for Student Affairs (Ag), a founding faculty member of the College of Medicine and Health Sciences, and past Director of the PreMedicine Bridge Program, Dr. Corridon has blended his administrative acumen with his research endeavors to increase student matriculation and retention, to support the next generation of medical students and biomedical scientists.
