题 目:Engineering Biomimetic Microenvironments for Regenerative Medicine and Disease Models
特邀嘉宾:杨勇副教授(西弗吉尼亚大学)
时 间:2017年6月12日 下午15:00-17:00
地 点:生物工程学院B区431会议室
内容简介:
Developing a fundamental understanding of how the microenvironmental cues regulate cell behavior will provide important mechanistic insight and lead to advancement of cell culture technologies and identification of potential therapeutic and pharmaceutical targets for a variety of diseases. From biomaterials and polymer micro-/nanoengineering approaches, we are able to create biomimetic microenvironments and study cellular responses to the microenvironmental cues. We engineered a variety of nanotopographies covering primary shapes and important dimensional parameters, and investigated how nanotopography modulated cell behavior, from cell adhesion, spreading and migration, to proliferation and differentiation.
