Excited to be at #wbc2024 with two PhD student lab members Martin Kiwanuka & Ranmadusha Hengst presenting our work on #biomaterials and #ECM! If you're 12th World Biomaterials Congress (WBC 2024), come check us out! 👇 Mechanobiology Institute NUSBME

Hi everyone. I am Shinny Sunny Shinny sunny, a 2nd year Ph.D. student at the Confinement Mechanobiology Lab at MBI at Mechanobiology Institute. Our lab is excited to be at the 12th World Biomaterial Congress 12th World Biomaterials Congress (WBC 2024). Stay tuned for updates from some exciting talks from Day 5.😍😍 #biomaterials #WBC2024

Amazing talk by Viola Vogel about how cells pull on ECM proteins and mechanosense.Confinement Mechanobiology Lab at MBI Mechanobiology Institute Andrew Holle #mechanobiology #WBC2024

Fabulous work by Jennifer Young on deciphering cardiac aging using a novel #DECIPHER technique. #WBC2024 #Biomaterials - SS

First conference talk by my bestie Ranmadusha Hengst at the 12th World Biomaterials Congress (WBC 2024) exploring ways to rejuvenate physiologically aged hearts. #ECM #Biomaterial - SS

Congratulations to Dr. Jason Burdick BurdickLab for winning the ESB International award 2024 for their significant contribution to the field of biomaterials. Loved their cool work on using biocontinuous hydrogels to study 3D cell migration. 12th World Biomaterials Congress (WBC 2024) #Biomaterial

Happy to see our fellow lab CT Lim from Mechanobiology Institute at the Mechanobiology with Biomaterials session at 12th World Biomaterials Congress (WBC 2024). Very interesting talk by Prof Lim on how surface topographies affect collective cell migration. - SS #mechanobiology #WBC2024

Awesome talk by Prof. Song Li Song Li at the Mechanobiology with Biomaterials sessions discussing the role of substrate stiffness and ECM proteins in mechanotransduction . - SS 12th World Biomaterials Congress (WBC 2024) Mechanobiology Institute

Wow! What an eye opening session on Sex as a biological variable in research. My personal favourite was Rayyan Gorashi, MS for studying the role of sex linked genes in regulating responses to stiffness. Special thanks to Brian @BrianAguado for his insightful conversations. - SS 12th World Biomaterials Congress (WBC 2024)

Bringing to you cool work by my labmate Nicole from Confinement Mechanobiology Lab at MBI on understanding the role of mechanical memory in confined cells migration. Signing off for the day -SS 12th World Biomaterials Congress (WBC 2024) #Biomaterial #mechanobiology

Welcome to the final day of 12th World Biomaterials Congress (WBC 2024). The "Young"-sters Ranmadusha Hengst Martin Kiwanuka from the soft nano-biomaterials lab Jennifer Young at Mechanobiology Institute are taking over the Confinement Mechanobiology Lab at MBI channel. Stay tuned! -RH & MK #biomaterials #WBC2024

True Regeneration is when we control inflammatory responses. Great talk by Prof.Milica Milica Radisic on using citric acid based polymers as 3D tissue velcros for reduction in invasiveness of surgeries. - RM & MK 12th World Biomaterials Congress (WBC 2024) #biomaterial

Great keynote from Ali Khademhosseini at Terasaki Institute for Biomedical Innovation discussing the different applications of GelMA in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine at 12th World Biomaterials Congress (WBC 2024). -MK & RH #biomaterials #WBC2024

Learning about the importance of scaffold design and long-term testing of heart valvular implants. Really inspired by the keynote speaker Dr. Carlijn Bouten TU Eindhoven. 12th World Biomaterials Congress (WBC 2024) - RH & MK #WBC2024 #biomaterials

Amazing work by Prof Kristopher Kilian Kristopher Kilian UNSW on cancer shapeoids using hydrogel microstructures of varying stiffness and geometry 12th World Biomaterials Congress (WBC 2024) - MK & RH #biomaterials #WBC2024

Awesome talk by Samuel Maher from the Cell Mechanobiology Choi Lab Yu Suk CHOI on using the gradient hydrogel system to understand the role of volume adaptation in regulating stem cell function. - RM & MK 12th World Biomaterials Congress (WBC 2024) #Biomaterial #mechanobiology

Congratulations to Yeji from Confinement Mechanobiology Lab at MBI for the best poster award at the 12th World Biomaterials Congress (WBC 2024). She is exploring the activation of fibroblasts as a function of confined migration. You go girl !! - RH & MK #Biomaterials #WBC2024

Great poster Yeji!! 축하해요!! Way to represent Confinement Mechanobiology Lab at MBI !! #WBC2024

What a whirlwind week WBC2024 of stellar science, friends & fun! So proud of Ranmadusha Hengst & Martin Kiwanuka on their awesome presentations!🤩 Thx esp to Yu Suk CHOI & Jennifer Shin for organizing such cool #mechanobiology #ECM #biomaterials #WBC2024 sessions😎 Mechanobiology Institute NUSBME

All good things must come to an end! Signing off on the last day of WBC2024. Cheers to all the amazing scientific talks and beautiful connections. Thank you everyone for making this a great experience. Special thanks to Yu Suk CHOI, Jennifer Young, Hwang lab, Jennifer Shin - RH,MK,SS
