Our first tweet! We are a network of researchers at Monash that integrate biomaterials, microfabrication, microfluidics & sensors with stem cell & regenerative science. We aim to develop and use models to enhance understanding of how tissues and organs are built and maintained

New paper from @IDonderwinkel - we wanted to know how TGFβ and mechanical forces combine in #tendon Tissue Eng. Turns out TGFβ turns on key tenogenic genes, but mechanical stimulation is more important for ECM deposition. https://t.co/MuxwWNpd7S

Assessing ovarian toxicity in clinical trials is way overdue! 🪺 We’re so proud of these recommendations published in @TheLancetOncol Check them out here 👉🏼
Our new recommendations published today in @TheLancetOncol spotlight the need for assessing ovarian toxicity in #ClinicalTrials. This aims to bridge the information gap helping patients make informed treatment choices. ➡️ https://t.co/WmCLToIQPQ
