The research in biomaterials for regenerative medicine and medical devices at the University of Brighton was established in 1993. Our flagship throughout these years has been the development of biomaterials capable of full integration with the surrounding tissue.
In particular we have developed methods to functionalise the surface of conventional polymers, metals and ceramics to give them enhanced biocompatibility and tissue regeneration properties. The more recent addition of expertise in engineering and advanced manufacturing methods contributes to the unique and highly competitive character of our innovation.
