Biography
Joanna Magon is currently a research assistant in Professor Eileen Gentleman’s group at King’s College London, where she supports PhD students in their research. Her primary focus is on PEG-peptide hydrogel systems, which are used in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine for developing biomaterials that mimic the extracellular matrix.
Joanna has a strong background in chemical and polymer sciences. She earned a B.Eng. in Chemical Technology from the University of Science and Technology in Krakow, Poland. She then pursued an MSc in Chemistry at Jagiellonian University, also in Poland. For her Master's thesis, she conducted research at the IPF Leibniz Institute of Polymer Research in Dresden, Germany, focusing on polyesters synthesis and characterisation.
Research
Centre for Craniofacial & Regenerative Biology
Our research goes beyond the mouth. If we understand how the entire face and head forms, we can repair damage and regenerate cells. If we unravel the causes of diseases, we can treat patients successfully. If we solve these problems, our discoveries will improve health worldwide.
Gentleman Lab
The Gentleman lab works at the interface of stem cell biology, chemistry and materials science to develop innovative biomaterials for regenerative medicine.
