Introduction Sepsis related projects had a decent presence at this years Biomedical Engineering Society (2019). I will detail a few of the talks I found most relevant to our group and research. Nanomedicine for Acute Criticial Illness by Dr. Jacob Brenner (U Penn Medical) Dr. Brenner is a practicing physician working on ICAM-1, PECAM-1, and…
I’ve been working recently with amyloid-beta (AB) provided to me by some people in Brad Nilsson’s lab. These experiments are related to the HMM diffusion experiments for our collaboration with Harold Smith. Basically, AB fibrils are very long (microns) and we are looking for ways to either prevent their aggregation from smaller peptides/oligos, or to…
Hi all, this report will serve both as an update and a template for my upcoming BMES 2012 poster on the shear-free chemotaxis system. Introduction: Because of its capability in hosting reactions and transporting materials in small volumes, microfluidics enables the efficient processing of precious reagents. However, the shear stress inherent in the use of…
Coming to a basement near you by the end of 2008 (assuming no delays that is). Pretty exciting in my opinion.
The following post is the abstract that I recently submitted for the BMES Annual Conference. Introduction: Permeable membranes provide a physiologically relevant cell culture substrate for in vitro study of barrier cell types, such as endothelial cells, which assume a polarized morphology with distinct apical and basolateral surfaces. Cell morphology and subsequent monolayer formation and…
Intro Recently we have been collaborating with the Moghaddam lab from the University of Florida, which specializes in the fabrication of graphene oxide (GO) membrane, to study the use GO membrane as a toxin filter or absorbent in hemodialysis and live support devices. We are responsible for the hemocompatibility component of the study and used the following…
