Abstract
This thesis work uses a hybrid tissue engineering approach to improve the biomaterial and biologic delivery for musculoskeletal tissue engineering applications. A novel methodology is first presented for synthesizing a tunable, bioactive polycaprolactone-based composite with nanoparticle features, which can be 3D printed for high customizability. A new substrate coating technology, Hybrid Tissue Engineering Constructs (HyTEC), is then introduced to demonstrate the importance of sustained biologics release in bone tissue repair in both small and large animal models.
