ISCRM researchers led by Ying Zheng, PhD, detail a method to generate microvaculature in full 3D complexity using multiphoton ablation and laser-guided cellularization Read More about Engineering Microvasculature in Full 3D Complexity
In reality show terms, Cole DeForest and his team manufacture tiny bio-worlds staged to mimic living systems, force an eclectic cast of cells to cohabitate, apply light, heat, and chemicals to stir up drama, then record it all with sophisticated monitoring equipment. What they see on the tiniest scales, could have major implications for medicine. Read More about DeForest Lab Pioneers 4D Biomimicry Systems With Ingenuity, Collaboration, and an NIH Grant
