University of Sydney 2022 Research Scholarship in Engineering Processable Tough Hydrogels

This scholarship has been established by the Bioengineering Laboratory in the School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at the University of Sydney to support a PhD student who is undertaking research in designing a tough and versatile hydrogel with self-healing properties.

This project will aim to design a type of hydrogel with broad applications in soft robotic, medical devices such as heart valves, vasculature, and development of in vitro model that mimic physical properties of digestion system including colon, intestine and stomach.
