Abstract :
[en] Tissue engineering is a fast progressing domain where solutions are provided for organ failure or tissue damage. Computer models can facilitate the design of optimal production process conditions leading to robust and economically viable products. We developed a computational model describing the neotissue growth (cells + their ECM) inside 3D scaffolds in a perfusion bioreactor. Here we apply multi-objective optimization (MOO) to maximize neotissue growth whilst minimizing the cost coming from medium refreshment and associated labor.
