4D PRINTED TISSUE SCAFFOLD
4D PRINTED TISSUE SCAFFOLD
This was my undergraduate dissertation at the University of Liverpool, completed before I moved into software and web development. The project reflected my curiosity for new technologies, beginning when I discovered 4D printing was more than just a typo. The work led to a published paper and helped me secure a place at UCL for my master’s in computer science.

The brief challenged me to explore 4D printing, a field I knew nothing about at the outset. I quickly became intrigued and identified biomedical scaffolds as an application where better design could genuinely help people, focusing on ways to reduce surgical invasiveness.

I designed a scaffold that used origami geometry to expand inside the body, with a structure optimised for cell attachment and integration. The approach balanced biological requirements with manufacturability and patient outcomes.

Through iterative prototyping and testing, I discovered a novel way to improve the shape memory effect of PLA. This work led to a published paper and demonstrated that the scaffold could reliably actuate in situ, supporting faster, less invasive surgeries.
