Kinderspital Zürich Launches Unique Research Center for Pediatric Skin Treatments
The Kinderspital Zürich has established a unique research center focusing on pediatric skin treatments, featuring innovative lab-grown skin specifically designed for young patients, including burn victims. This center, located adjacent to the hospital, fosters collaboration among researchers and healthcare practitioners. Led by Matthias Baumgartner and Sophie Bötticher, the facility aims to develop a breakthrough artificial skin that mimics natural skin, paving the way for potentially unlimited skin growth from small biopsies. The research team anticipates clinical applications to commence within the next year.
