Stanford researchers have invented a twist-expand mechanical bioreactor that provides an appropriate in vitro microenvironment for induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) derived cardiomyocytes to achieve biomimetic anisotropic alignment and form contractile cardiac tissue
Researchers at Stanford University have developed a novel 3D printing method, enabling multiple printheads to collaboratively pattern materials from multiple directions, an 'inwards-out' approach that overcomes previous limitations.
