Tiago Fernandes
Assistant professor
Research
Activities
My research is focused on providing an integrated platform that brings
together engineering and biology in order to accelerate progress
towards designing the stem cell fate and its microenvironment. My goal
is to contribute to the development of innovative cell culture models
that better reflect in vivo function, and the final objective is to
generate cells and tissues to advance our understanding of biology and
tissue regeneration, which will lead to further development of
cell-based therapies.
