NOVEL POLYMER

A functionalised polymer comprising a polymer partially functionalised with: a plurality of photocrosslinkable moieties linked to the polymer, each photocrosslinkable moiety comprising a reactive functionality capable of photocrosslinking; and a plurality of cell adhesion moieties each linked to the polymer via a linker, each cell adhesion moiety comprising a cell adhesion motif, and wherein the functionalised polymer further comprises a plurality of functional groups capable of ionic crosslinking with an ionic crosslinking agent. A method for forming a liquified polymer composition comprising cells from a tissue sample, the method comprising: providing a tissue sample comprising cells; contacting the sample with the functionalised polymer in binding conditions, said binding conditions being conditions that enable binding of cells in the sample to the functionalised polymer, so that said cells are bound to the functionalised polymer; culturing the cells bound to the polymer under conditions and for a time that allows the cell number to increase; providing conditions to induce a solid to liquid phase change of the functionalised polymer; thereby forming a liquified polymer composition comprising cells from a tissue sample..
