Design, fabrication, and testing of a bioprinted nerve graft
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)Injuries to nerves vary in their consequences, from weakened sensation and motor function to partial or complete paralysis. In the latter case, affecting about twenty thousand Americans yearly, the injury is debilitating ... -
The interplay of physical and molecular determinants in limb and cardiac cushion morphogenesis
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)In an effort to investigate the interplay between molecular determinants and biomechanical properties during early embryonic development we have investigated two separate but similar morphogenetic processes: limb morphogenesis ... -
Optimizing the tissue engineering of tubular organ structures by bio-printing
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine may help to save people’s lives by fabricating new organs. Towards this goal our objective is to optimize the conditions for cells to self assemble into functional structures, ...
