Abstract

The article entitled "Hybrid scaffolds built from PET and collagen as a vascular graft model for architecture" is a direct product of the Master Thesis of  Mariana Carvalho Burrows which was funded by a FAPESP masters scholarships and a FAPESP thematic project (now closed). The article was accepted for publication in Macromolecular Biosciences and indicated this work as cover page the issue of its publication. This grant proposal is intended to finance exclusively the costs of the publication of color images in the article, as well as the costs of publishing the cover page. (AU)
