Title of the Talk: Biomaterialomics: Data Science-driven Pathways to Develop Fourth-Generation Biomaterials
This talk will focus on development of next generation biomaterials. Conventional approaches to developing biomaterials and implants require intuitive tailoring of process variables, long development cycles, and high expensed. To meet the biomedical and clinical demands, it is critical to accelerate he production of personalized implantable biomaterials and biomedical devices. Building on the Materials Genome Initiative, we define the concept “biomaterialomics” as the integration of multi-omics data and high-dimensional analysis with Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools throughout the entire pipeline of biomaterials development based on their efforts.
