Abstract
This study aims to create a new paradigm for building 3D silk-carbon nanotube (CNT) based composite scaffolds in order to acquire better neuron differentiation efficiency from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). CNT and silk have been successfully used for neuronal differentiation and tissue engineering applications. The silk-CNT composite scaffolds can serve as efficient support matrices for stem cell derived neuronal transplants that offer a promising opportunity for nerve injury treatments in spinal cord injury (SCI) patients. © 2011 IEEE.
