2024 has been my best year of research, with 15 manuscript accepted and new sponsorship from the Heart Foundation. This success was only possible because of my great collaborators, brilliant students, and supportive community. Thank you and looking forward to a great 2025!

My first foray into ceramic biomaterials has been a fun one. We created hierarchically porous and 3D printed scaffolds for bone tissue engineering. Work now out in @BiomaterialsAdv Thank you to great co-authors Shareen Chan and George Franks https://t.co/tIbWuvnBBf

Giant publishers are bleeding universities dry, with profit margins that rival Google’s. So we decided to start our own, says academic Arash Abizadeh

The same interface also gave the best myotube formation, with the largest number of myotubes, the highest fusion index, the greatest diameter, and the most mature phenotype.

Using a comb polymer system, we assessed how ligand clustering and surface density independently promoted myotube formation. Ligand tetramers with high surface density were best for myoblast proliferation.
