Dear Members, The annual conference of the International Society of Biofabrication ISBF is being held this September 17-20 in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan...
Bone is a dynamic and vascularized tissue that has the ability of naturally healing upon damage. Nevertheless, in the case of critical size defects this potential is impaired...
The monocyte-derived macrophage is one of the first cell types found on newly implanted devices and is known to play a role in inflammation, immunoregulation and wound healing depending on its functional phenotype...
Human gingival fibroblasts exhibit many differences compared to their dermal counterparts including embryonic origin, distinctive gene and extracellular matrix expression, whichmanifests at a tissue level in a reduced propensity for scarring compared to dermis 1 ...
Injectable hydrogels that can be delivered using needles offer particular advantages in biomedical applications given that these hydrogels do not require invasive surgical implantation, thereby reducing recovery time for patients, reducing costs, and in many cases enabling direct encapsulation, rather than post-encapsulation, of cells during the gel formation process 1 ...
