The second PhD from our lab - she defended a foundational body of work in using dECM materials to model cancer metastasis! Her platform can be used for both therapeutic and mechanistic discovery ✨10 May 2025 00:28 +0000at://did:plc:vitezalgvjl6xvimu6zi3ig2/app.bsky.feed.post/3loroo7phtc2yhttps://bsky.app/profile/raghavanlab.bsky.social/post/3lmxqyh4qxs24What do dormant microscopic metastatic colorectal cancers do when no one's looking? No one knows, because we don't have good models for them! Grad students Sabrina VandenHeuvel and Lucy Nash highlight the opportunities for tissue engineering in this space: t.ly/leJPt Out now in Tissue Engineering B! https://t.ly/leJPt16 Apr 2025 23:35 +0000at://did:plc:vitezalgvjl6xvimu6zi3ig2/app.bsky.feed.post/3lmxqyh4qxs24https://bsky.app/profile/raghavanlab.bsky.social/post/3lmezhdugys2pConsidering how to put biomaterials to use for engineering women's health?
