Check out the latest from our lab Biophysical Society #bps2022 on Tues. Adeel Ahmed and @JoshiIndranil will present posters L2929-Pos and 2052-Pos describing their 3D collagen microengineering work.

If you are at #bps2022 tomorrow, stop by and check the poster from Gaborski NanoBio materials lab by Zahra Allahyari (1:45pm) with a cool combo of computational modeling & cell-substrate interaction Biophysical Society Kate Gleason College of Engineering RIT more 🐅s on Tuesday!

We have an opening for a full-time Lab Research Technician to support multiple #extracellularVesicle projects. Our lab is a very dynamic mix of biologists and engineers. gaborskilab.org/team/ Ideal candidate has a BS and 0-2 yrs wet lab experience. sjobs.brassring.com/TGnewUI/Search…

The preprint of our companion papers is available in BioRxiv. In this collaborative work, we aim to provide engineering and bioscience laboratories with an open-well platform with microfluidic capabilities to mimic barrier tissue models. #Microfluidics #LabOnChip #TissueBarrier ,

We’re excited to start this collagen microengineering project to study how migrating cells interpret and respond to discontinuities in the ECM. Thank you @NIGMS Tech Dev R21 program #biomaterials #microfluidics #cellmigration Kate Gleason College of Engineering

More lab news! We just received U.S. National Science Foundation funding to study the signaling hierarchy between two collagen related properties that independently predict patient metastasis. Kate Gleason College of Engineering RIT BME PHT180 nsf.gov/awardsearch/sh…

We've developed a new biofabrication technique to create fiber alignment gradients in 3D collagen hydrogels. This could lead to new insights into directed cell migration. Kate Gleason College of Engineering #biomaterials #cellmigration #microfluidics biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Our new study in Advanced Functional Materials is out! We built tumor-like collagen matrices with spatial gradients in fiber alignment. Directional cell migration showed enhancement over uniformly aligned gels! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ad… Kate Gleason College of Engineering #CancerResearch

Dr. Vinay Abhyankar's (Vinay Abhyankar) team at RIT demonstrates successful engineering of continuous alignment gradients in soft, natural #biomaterials 🧫, offering new insights to biophysical cues that cells interpret as they traverse the #ECM! 🔗 bit.ly/3tgFWBn
