معرفی
Pablo Pennisi is an Associate Professor at Aalborg University's Department of Health Science and Technology, Faculty of Medicine. His research bridges engineering and biology, focusing on regenerative medicine, stem cell dynamics, and biomaterial development for tissue repair. He leads multiple EU-funded projects including BONEGEL and STRONG-UR advancing 3D-bioprinting and smart hydrogels.
Education:
- Ph.D. in Biomedical Sciences and Engineering (2004-2008)
- M.Sc. in Bioelectronics, Centro de Investigación y de Estudios Avanzados del IPN (2001-2002)
- Bioengineering degree, Universidad Nacional de Entre Ríos (1991-1998)
- University Pedagogics Certification (2011-2013)
Research Focus: Dr. Pennisi investigates how microenvironmental signals regulate stem cell fate, particularly in muscle regeneration. His work utilizes hydrogels, 3D bioprinting, and electrical stimulation to develop novel therapeutic strategies for tissue repair and chronic wound healing.
Projects and Funding:
- BONEGEL: Injectable smart hydrogels for bone defects (Horizon Europe)
- STRONG-UR: 3D bioprinting for urethral regeneration (Horizon Europe)
- PULSE: 3D-printed vascular disease models (Danish Foundations)
- PROMEAT: Cultured meat development (Horizon Europe)
Academic Activities: Includes PhD supervision, conference presentations, journal editorship, and membership in research networks like the Cultivated muscle-cell based food (CMBFood) consortium.
