In this episode, Avnesh Thakor joins Sajeev Saluja to discuss bioscaffolds that are used to support pancreatic islet transplantation. Dr. Thakor's research interests are focused primarily on the pancreas, with respect to regenerative medicine and oncology. In Thakor's lab they are creating biocompatible 3D structures which contain spaces to accommodate islets. These bioscaffolds will aim to facilitate oxygen generation and angiogenesis, both of which are essential for islet survival and function.
