Micro/Nanofluidics Laboratory: Research Interests

Our general research interests include:

Materials testing platform for evaluating electrokinetic properties of tissue-engineered scaffolds, housed in the Musculoskeletal Tissue Engineering laboratory. Dynamic loading is applied to scaffolds while electrokinetic response is measured.
Frequency response of apparent modulus of tissue-engineered scaffolds used for seeding chondrocytes. We are designing biomaterials with controlled material properties so as to enable studies of mechanotransduction in chondrocytes during physiological loading.
