About

Dr. Azadeh Mostafavi is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of regenerative medicine and advanced manufacturing, whose work is redefining surgical possibilities. Her primary focus lies in developing bioprinting technologies for in situ tissue repair, a field where she has made transformative contributions. Most notably, her landmark 2022 paper, "In situ bioprinting: intraoperative implementation of regenerative medicine," has garnered over 109 citations, establishing a foundational framework for directly printing living constructs onto damaged tissues during surgery. This work addresses critical challenges in organ transplantation and wound healing by enabling real-time, patient-specific tissue fabrication. Dr. Mostafavi's research integrates biomaterials science, 3D printing, and clinical translation, offering a paradigm shift from traditional scaffold-based approaches to dynamic, intraoperative solutions. Her achievements include pioneering the use of handheld bioprinters for cartilage and bone repair, and her studies have been recognized for bridging the gap between lab-scale innovation and operating-room application. With a growing citation impact, she is widely regarded as a rising leader in regenerative engineering, inspiring a new generation of researchers to explore the surgical potential of bioprinting.
