Biomaterials can help us understand how human cells and tissues operate, fight diseases and develop new drugs. 

One way to do this is to create lab-based models of tissues, but it has its challenges.

Dr. Chris Spicer and his team are tackling this head-on by designing new biomaterials for research, funded by our Discovery Research Career Development Award.
