Peripheral nerves are highly susceptible to injuries. Severe nerve injuries with complete disruption in the nerve continuity need surgical intervention; injuries with nerve substance loss need a nerve substitute to fill the gap. Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine techniques have developed several artificial nerve substitutes of natural or synthetic origins to face this issue.In the present study, electrospun nanofibrous membranes composed of polycaprolactone (PCL) and polyaniline (PANI) blend, further doped with camphor-10-sulfonic acid (CSA), were prepared in random and aligned orie
