Technology Overview: This NJIT technology introduces a piezoelectric collagen scaffold that converts mechanical loading into localized electrical stimulation, mimicking natural bioelectrical cues found in healing tissues. The scaffold is biocompatible and supports cell attachment while generating electrical signals in response to movement or stress. This bioelectrical stimulation promotes cellular activity and tissue regeneration without external power sources.
Industry Pain Point: Existing scaffolds lack active stimulation to accelerate and guide tissue regeneration.
