If you’ve been grinding your teeth wondering about the mechanisms of the plasma jet activated covalent attachment I posted about during my PhD, then I can finally offer you some relief. Big thanks to @behnam and all. #3dbioprinting #appliedsurfacescience sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

My review is finally out! It discusses the various ways to attach biomolecules to 3D printed structures, and how these can be improved. This helps a range of emerging devices that will change the face of healthcare. Think implants, drug testing, therapies, etc.

Stable attachment of biomolecules to 3D printed biomaterials has been a persistent limitation in the field of regenerative medicine. After 4 years of work by a fantastic team our paper in Adv Functional Mater finally presents a strategy to solve this (1/n) onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Covalent Protein Immobilization on 3D‐Printed Microfiber Meshes for Guided Cartilage Regeneration

Cartilage tissue engineering requires fine control of both mechanical and biochemical aspects for effective tissue formation. Here, microfiber meshes are fabricated using melt electrowriting and...

Scientists built a robot octopus that moves like the real thing

The invention is equipped with a novel actuation system which pumps air into the robot's "tentacles," allowing it to rotate and change direction almost like the real thing.

Trauma is a very real part of our lives. This graphic shows how trauma affects some of the major parts of our brain, the central processing unit for humans. To understand the brain & to understand trauma is part of the pathway for our healing.
