Physical Principles that Govern Vascularization of Scaffolds

Dr. Joe Tien , Associate Professor of Biomedical Engineering, Boston University

When: Feb 26, 2013 | 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Where: Geo Museum Haller Hall rm. 102

What can physical reasoning teach us about how to vascularize scaffolds? I will describe our recent studies that use microfluidic scaffolds to determine how forces and flows affect vascular stability.  This work suggests algorithms for the rational design of scaffolds for vascularization.
