Abstract:
An implantable hearing aid device is being developed by a project group which is part of an EU initiative. This device contains a diaphragm consisting of a submicron thick freestanding titanium film, which should be free of internal stresses. Stress is the force exerted per unit cross-sectional area of the film and it can impair the functionality and performance of the device. The stress that evolves in a thin film during deposition at a substrate is compressive or/and tensile and affects the bending that occurs of the substrate due to the lateral force applied to the substrate by the stressed

Abstract:
An implantable closed-loop insulin delivery device (INsmart device) containing a glucose responsive gel has been developed within the INsmart research group, over a period of 10 years, to mimic pancreas. In this thesis, the reliability and performance capability of the INsmart device was studied for future clinical use. Investigations into the device material compatibility with insulin solution, assessed by monitoring insulin loss and degradant formation over a period of 31 days using RP-HPLC have shown that stainless steel and titanium are the most compatible materials.

A key goal in regenerative therapy is to improve outcomes following the devastating consequences of spinal cord injury. Yearly, between 250,000 to 500,000 people suffer permanent injury to the spinal cord. The cost to the individual, their families and society is substantial. Modest success in clinical trials has offered hope. However, there remain a number of challenges still to be met in respect of a combinatorial approach that offers safe delivery of grafts, to promote recovery and regeneration in the injured spinal cord.
