Our collaborative project led by Koki (PhD student in Adachi lab at Kyoto University) got published in Tissue Engineering Part A. Congratulation, Koki! “Cyclic Stretching Enhances Angiocrine Signals at Liver Bud Stage from hPSCs in 2-Dimensional Culture”
As we welcome a new Hijri year, may it usher in peace, prosperity, and wisdom for you and your loved ones. Embrace the spirit of renewal this Muharram and look forward to endless possibilities. Happy Islamic New Year!
The patent we applied for in collaboration with Ushio Inc. has been granted approval as a Japanese patent (in Japanese)!
Title: Evaluation of solvent releases from microfluidic devices made of cyclo orefin polymer by temperature-desorption mass spectrometry Authors: S. Takahashi, Y. Mune, A. Yamamuro, A. Aiba, K. Hatakeyama, K. Kamei DOI: 10.1088/1361-6439/accd00 Abstract: Microfluidic devices have been used in various biological experiments. The working temperature of the devices spans a Read more…
Our collaborative research (Dr. Hirai, Dr. Yang, Dr. Iida, and Prof. Tabata) got published in Communications Biology! Organs-on-a-Chip for in vitro model of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease/ Title: Integrated-gut-liver-on-a-chip platform as an in vitro human model of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease Authors: Jiandong Yang, Yoshikazu Hirai, Kei Iida, Shinji Ito, Marika Trumm, Shiho Terada, Risako Sakai, Toshiyuki Read more…
Dr. Imamura got the poster award at Cheminas 46. He presented his research for generating an artificial blastocyst, namely “blastoid”, from human pluripotent stem cells by applying 3D hydrogel cellular environments. Congratulations, Satoshi!! And thank you very much for our collaborators and posters’ audience.
Dr. Kamei is now appointed as a visiting associate professor of Biology and Bioengineering, Divisions of Science and Engineering at New York University Abu Dhabi (NYUAD). If you are interested, please visit the website and contact with me.
Our paper in collaboration with Dr. Hirai lab at Kyoto U. got published in Biomicrofluidics! Fortunately, this paper got selected as “Featured article” and “Cover” of this journal. Congrats!
