About
Sandro Figi is a pioneering researcher in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, with a focus on developing advanced bioprinting technologies for skin reconstruction. His major contributions center on the creation of large, vascularized, and pigmented dermo-epidermal skin substitutes (DESS) that closely mimic native human skin. His landmark 2022 study, which has garnered 41 citations, introduced a novel robotic platform capable of bioprinting and plastic compressing these complex substitutes—a breakthrough that addresses critical challenges in treating severe burns and large skin defects. This work builds on the success of a clinical phase I trial, demonstrating the translational potential of his approach. Figi’s research not only advances the structural and functional fidelity of engineered skin but also paves the way for scalable, automated manufacturing of autologous grafts. His achievements highlight a commitment to bridging laboratory innovation and clinical application, offering hope for patients with extensive skin loss.
