title: Tissue engineering provides the potential to replace and regenerate.
abstract: Tissue engineering applies the principle of engineering and life sciences towards the development of biological substitute that restore, maintain or improve tissue or organ function. Scientists grow tissues or organs in vitro and implant them when the body is unable to prompt into healing itself. This presentation aims to highlight the potential clinical application of engineered tissues being researched on at the Tissue Engineering Centre, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Medical Centre.
