The growth of cells of a living being is key for an increasing range of applications, including in-vitro drug testing and cellular agriculture. In order to closely mimic the natural environment of such cells in-vitro, highly porous structures with tuneable mechanical and permeability properties are required. Sallea is developing such scaffolds with highly controlled pore size, shape and overall porosity from a broad range of relevant materials.
