Currently, the full-time research faculty at the Vacanti Laboratory consists of Scientific Director Koji Kojima M.D. PhD, and postdoctoral research fellow Haruko Obokata PhD.
In addition, there is a continuous flux of medical, graduate, and undergraduate students in the laboratory, as well as several visiting research fellows from around the world learning the basics of tissue engineering.
One of the most important and successful tissue engineering projects being carried out in our laboratory is examining the feasibility of creating an autologous trachea.
This study strives to provide a method for treating patients with injuries to the trachea using a patients’ own cells seeded on biodegradable structures to engineer a tracheal replacement.
Positive results along with numerous publications led to FDA approval to attempt the procedure in a child with a life-threatening tracheal condition.
