Tissue engineering applied to the osteoarticular system. We evaluate different biomaterials for their application to articular cartilage regeneration. We have evaluated substitutes based on chitosan discs, PCL and hyaluronic acid, as well as other elements including mixed hydrogels and microspheres both in vitro and in vivo. This line of research has been funded by the ministry without interruption since 2004 (MAT2004-04980, MAT2007-66759, MAT2013-46467-C4-4-R and MAT2016-76039-C4-2-R).
