This study develops marrow-mimic scaffolds that enhance cRBC production by supporting macrophage-erythroblast interactions in high-density cultures.

This paper presents a microfluidic system to create spatial growth factor gradients in hydrogels for studying CD34+ cell behavior and optimizing culture conditions.

This study develops an in vitro intracranial aneurysm model with cardiovascular flow to investigate endothelial remodelling and identifies cytokine signatures as potential biomarkers for IA remodelling.

BRAT is a tool for high-content microscopy screening of microvascular networks, offering fast and accurate analysis of vascular images.

This paper develops a microfluidic co-culture system that enables the reproducible formation of vascularised adipose tissue from immortalised cells, showing that vascular networks significantly enhance adipocyte differentiation.
