Great work from @ResearchRMIT , @ACMD_BioFab PhD student @emily_L__ ! She showed how melt-electrowriting can be used to create capillary-scale channels (down to 10 um diameter) within cell-laden hydrogels. A collab with @StVincentsMelb funded by the Bauer Foundation @Neurobionics
An obstacle to creating artificial tissue models is supplying cells with oxygen and nutrients. Here, researchers @iCatHalo @ResearchRMIT use printed polycaprolactone fibers encapsulated in cell-laden hydrogels to produce hollow, perfusable channels. ow.ly/9uK050OnHO8

👏Fantastic to see construction starting on the Aikenhead Centre for Medical Discovery! It will be a brilliant addition to Melbourne's excellent biomedical infrastructure.
‘Engineering is the future of medicine’ Great to be at @StVincentsMelb today where the Aikenhead Centre for Medical Discovery will bring together clinicians, scientists & engineers to address chronic illnesses like epilepsy, cancer & osteoarthritis through new technologies.
