The first stage of the Open Doors Olympiad has concluded
On November 28, the results of the portfolio review were announced.
Research by young scientist Mikhail Kotelny of the Faculty of Chemical Technology and Biotechnology of Moscow Polytechnic University (Department of Chembiotech) is aimed at developing bioreactors that allow for the efficient growth of organic tissue. Organic tissues obtained with specified parameters can be further used in the field of Regenerative Medicine.
The modern and rapidly developing field of regenerative medicine requires new technical solutions for both improving cell culture technology and creating equipment for all stages of the process.
Mikhail developed and patented two promising bioreactor designs during his first year of graduate school.
Mikhail Kotelny worked under the scientific supervision of Tatiana Gromov, Professor of the Department of Chemical Biotech, and Nikolai Trutnev, Associate Professor of the Department of Hardware Design and Automation of Technological Production named after Professor M.B. Generalov. New bioreactors make it possible to control the growth of cell mass and create tissue with specified parameters.
Noting the promise of Mikhail's research, Techsplav company provided samples of plates made of various grades of steel. Using these plates, Mikhail plans to conduct a series of field tests and evaluate the growth rate of cell cultures depending on the steel grade.
