What we study
The Agarwal Lab develops biomaterials for tissue repair. A recent student project made an injectable hydrogel from decellularized human nerve to support nerve cell growth after spinal cord injury; its papers also cover hydrogel storage and protein and sugar purification.

Humanized Injectable Hydrogel for Spinal Cord Injury Regeneration
Researchers created an injectable gel from decellularized human sciatic nerve that can be delivered to a spinal cord injury site and supports nerve cell growth, showing suitable strength and injectability for potential clinical use.
