About Bimaterials Laboratory
Biomaterials Laboratory is part of Graduate School of Interdisciplinary Science and Engineering in Health Systems, Okayama University. Established in 1993, the group is currently led by Prof. Satoshi Hayakawa.
With the aim of creating novel "biomaterials" with excellent biocompatibility and highest functionality, as well as cultivating "Experts at material science", the group research works within the fields of biomedical materials and tissue engineering.
Current research topics include but are not restricted to design and synthesis of inorganic materials, organic-inorganic hybrids, and composites among glass, ceramics, polymers, and metals for biomedical applications. The group also focuses on characterization and optimization of their atomics and microstructures to provide highest functionality.
