The Christman lab is interested in multi-scale, interdisciplinary approaches for regenerative medicine and biomaterials, with a main focus on the treatment of myocardial infarction and heart failure. Current projects include the development of biomaterials for preventing heart failure following a myocardial infarction, injectable polymers for in situ regeneration of the myocardium, and biomaterials for directing cell differentiation. Projects involve a variety of approaches and tools including polymer chemistry, stem cells, nanotechnology, mechanics, cell biology, and imaging.
