WHS Scientific Advances in Wound Healing

Dr. Zomer's research focuses on advancing regenerative therapies for wound healing, particularly in aging populations. Her work investigates how the wound microenvironment shapes stem cell secretomes to optimize cell-free therapies and explores placental-derived factors to restore vascularization, stem cell function, and estrogen signaling in aged skin. Dr. Zomer's studies aim to overcome age-related barriers and develop targeted strategies to enhance skin repair.

Dr. El Masry's research focuses on regenerative wound healing for burn, chronic, and biofilm-infected wounds. Utilizing advanced imaging, large animal models, and innovative therapies, he developed an AI framework for precise burn depth assessment and novel treatments for post-burn facial contractures. He also explored novel approaches for treating hyperbiofilm infections. His work aims to enhance wound healing outcomes and tackle complex challenges through cutting-edge technology and translational medicine, bridging the gap from bench to bedside.
