The aim of the CANTER is to develop technologies based on the understanding of structural-function relationships in healthy and pathological tissues that make it possible to produce tissue replacement materials in the laboratory that are individually tailored to the needs of the patients. In addition to cell and molecular biology methods, generative manufacturing processes and materials technology, analytical methods are also required to examine tissues and tissue constructs with regard to their microscopic structure and biological functionality.
The CANTER therefore conducts project, final and doctoral theses of students and graduates of the Bachelor's and Master's programmes in
- Bioengineering,
- Mechatronics,
- Chemical Engineering,
- Engineering Physics
- Micro- and Nanotechnology,
- Photonics
The topics range from the production and testing of bioinks, to the development of new 3D printing processes and bioreactors, to the biophysical characterization of cells and tissues.

The CANTER was founded in 2011 as a cooperation project of LMU, HM and TUM. It is based on an established cooperation network, of engineers, physicians and natural scientists with joint research projects, courses and jointly supervised thesis and doctorates. The participating scientists include:
- A. Aszodi, ExperiMed, LMU
- W. Böcker, General, Accident and Recovery Surgery, LMU
- H. Clausen-Schaumann, Biophysics and Nanoanalytics, HM
- D. Docheva, Laboratory for Experimental Accident Surgery, University of Regensburg
- T. Hellerer, Multi-Photon-Imaging Lab, Biophotonics, HM
- H. Huber, Lasercenter, HM
- R. Huber, Bioprocess Engineering, HM
- K. Pham, Materials Technology Lab, HM
- HG. Machens, Klinik und Poliklinik für Plastische Chirurgie und Handchirurgie, KRI, TUM
- J. Roths, Photonics Lab, HM
- M. Schieker, ExperiMed, LMU
- A.F.Schilling, Department of Accident Surgery, Orthopaedics and Plastic Surgery, UMG
- E. Steinhauser, Materials Technology Lab, HM
- S. Sudhop, CANTER, HM
- C. Tille, Composite Laboratory Design and CAx (KCA), HM
CANTER cooperates with companies in the fields of biotechnology/nanobiotechnology, materials technology/biomaterials, microsystem technology, sensor technology, optics/laser technology, engineering and medical technology.
Scientists of the CANTER are involved in numerous research projects, among others in the research heavyweight production and biophysical characterization of three-dimensional tissues funded by the Bavarian Ministry of Science and the DFG Research unit FOR 2407 Exploring articular cartilage and subchondral bone degeneration and regeneration in osteoarthritis - ExCarBon.
