- Additional information
- This article, featuring on the front cover of the journal, demonstrates one of the first applications of thiol-ene chemistry in a 3D printing process for implantable medical devices. Traditional chemistries used in the process typically leave a lot of unreacted materials, detrimental to their use in biomaterial applications. As a successful initial interdisciplinary collaboration (Chemistry and Engineering) it led to a subsequent joint PhD studentship utilising the same chemistry and led to an Innovate UK iCURE award to commercialise the research.
