Inkjet Printing of Tumors
Cih’s paper on inkjet printing of tumoroids with tumor-stroma interface is published on the Journal Materials Today Advances. In this work, Cih developed a new 3D printing method, named as “morphogenetic printing”, to rapidly produce tumoroids with extremely high cell density. Inkjet-printed morphogenesis of tumor-stroma interface using bi-cellular bioinks of collagen-poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide-co-methyl methacrylate) mixture Abstract…

Feel the pain…?
Yingnan and Sameep’s paper to establish the mechanosensing mechanism of pain during injection of biologics is published in the Journal Extreme Mechanics Letters. In this paper, mechanical changes in the skin microenvironment are quantified in both experimentally and computationally, and correlated to potential pain signal. Experimental and computational analysis of the injection-induced mechanical changes in…
