DESCRIPTION:Nanostructuring materials allows to optimize their properties\,
  by exploiting size effects. We created nanopatterns that act as surface c
 ues\, affecting cell behavior. Chemical oxidation creates nanoscale topogr
 aphies\, that improve biocompatibility. Our treatment provides a different
 ial signal\, inhibiting fibroblast proliferation while promoting osteoblas
 t growth in vitro. Related strategies for tissue regeneration and repair a
 re also discussed [1-4]. Improving antibacterial properties using laser/pl
 asma strategies and growing graphene oxide coatings will be discussed [5-7
 ]. Finally\, sensing and therapeutic approaches can be harnessed by exploi
 ting the optical properties of nanocrystals\, including Quantum Dots and u
 pconverting nanoparticles [8-13].\n\nCo-sponsored by: Biomedical Engineeri

 ucturing materials allows to optimize their properties\, by exploiting siz
 e effects. We created nanopatterns that act as surface cues\, affecting ce
 ll behavior. Chemical oxidation creates nanoscale topographies\, that impr
 ove biocompatibility. Our treatment provides a differential signal\, inhib
 iting fibroblast proliferation while promoting osteoblast growth in vitro.
  Related strategies for tissue regeneration and repair are also discussed 
 [1-4]. Improving antibacterial properties using laser/plasma strategies an
 d growing graphene oxide coatings will be discussed [5-7]. Finally\, sensi
