A News Release Featuring the Pancreatic Cancer Model
Our recent paper regarding PDAC tumor models are featured in multiple news media including Purdue Today. Note here for more details.
Video Clip: Invasion of Pancreatic Cancer Cells
Time-lapsed micrographs of invasion of mouse pancreatic cancer cells from an epithelial duct to the surrounding collagen matrix. This work is published in Bradney et al (2020) Small. This confocal micrograph illustrates the sprouts of invading pancreatic cancer cells are multi-cellular structures rather than morphological changes of a single cell. This image is also published …
Tumor Model of Heterogeneous Pancreatic Cancer
Mike and Stephanie’s work regarding PDAC tumor model is published at the Journal “Small.” This paper aims to create an in vitro tumor model reconstituting intratumoral heterogeneity of human pancreatic cancer. This work is based on collaboration with Professor Konieczny’s group in the Department of Biological Science at Purdue. A Biomimetic Tumor Model of …
Similarity during Hydrogel Printing
Cih’s paper regarding intra- and inter-drop water-matrix interaction during hydrogel printing is accepted for publication in the International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer. This study proposes a new similarity mechanism of water transport within hydrogel, which will be able to design additive manufacturing processes. This work is based on collaboration with Dr. Jun Young …
Quantitative Measurement of Pain
Note this news release. An US patent is filed based on Yingnan’s research to quantitatively measure pain induced by subcutaneous injection of biologics drug.
