Talk Title: Rapid 3D bioprinting for functional scaffolds and precision tissue models

Series: Eli and Edythe Broad Center for Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cell Research at USC Distinguished Speakers Series

Abstract: The goal of our laboratory is to develop micro- and nano-scale bioprinting and 3D printing techniques to create 3D designer scaffolds for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. In this talk, I will present my laboratory's recent research efforts in rapid continuous projection 3D bioprinting to create 3D scaffolds using a variety of biomaterials. These 3D biomaterials are functionalized with precise control of micro-architecture, mechanical, chemical and biological properties. Design, fabrication and experimental results will be discussed. Such functional biomaterials allow us to investigate cell-microenvironment interactions at micro-scales in response to integrated physical and chemical stimuli. From these fundamental studies, we can create both in vitro and in vivo tissue models for precision tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.
