Diabetes, obesity and old age all limit the ability to heal wounds, and non-healing wounds have lower survival rates than some cancers. Ben Almquist, a Lecturer in the Department of Bioengineering at Imperial College London, explains how he is combining material science, DNA nanotechnology, self assembly and additive manufacturing to develop materials that can orchestrate wound repair over time.
