Happy to share this latest article from the Fan Yang group (Stanford), where microribbons were used as a bioink for 3D bioprinting.
Very grateful to have contributed by analyzing the printed materials :)

I had a great time attending and presenting my work at #BMES2025 in San Diego. It was such a nice opportunity to talk about my and others' projects on bone tissue engineering. Thank you everyone for the great talks! 🧪👩🔬

I will be presenting my work on fabricating oxygen releasing scaffolds for bone tissue engineering in Friday's poster session (T37). Interested in targeting hypoxia, hemoglobin-based oxygen carriers, or bone TE? Please come say hi 😀

Scientists at the Wyss have created cellular "backpacks," disk-shaped nanoparticles that can stick to immune cells without being engulfed, and release a steady stream of cytokines into their "host" cells to keep them activated.
Some say that #MOF were discovered in 1900s, but this figure from 1760s clearly show a crystal structure of a MOF with inclusion in pores. Look - metal centers, linkers, guest molecules, all in!

New research shows that simply changing how a reaction vessel is positioned on a magnetic stirrer can significantly change a reaction's speed and product quality, influencing the reproducibility of results. #ChemSky #ScienceSky #EduSky

Fully agree with this piece 🧪
In the past, I've contacted a Prof that miscited my paper (we did do the research, just in another ref). No response..
I think the reason is the long process of corrections post publ. So, better to ignore. Wrong citations should be treated easier, it will help everyone
It shows that each approach has its adv/disadvantages, whether using stem cells or particle systems.
While I am more interested in the latter, it is good to follow all the progresses made in each approach. Knowing a clinical trial was done in 2022 shows great promise for artificial blood!
Interesting & short article about artificial blood in Aljazeera, focusing on lab-grown blood (the alternative to HBOCs /PFCs).
Also summarizes their main disadvantage: "producing lab-grown blood is currently much more expensive than using donated blood".
