Where: BioTechniques, “Novel hydrogel bioink improves 3D-printed biomaterials”
Who: Amir Sheikhi, assistant professor of chemical engineering and biomedical engineering
What: Amir Sheikhi, assistant professor of chemical engineering and biomedical engineering, was recently featured in a BioTechniques article. The article discussed Sheikhi’s team’s research in developing a novel nanoengineered hydrogel bioink that makes use of self-assembling nanoparticles and hydrogel microparticles, or microgels. This novel bioink could advance the porosity, shape fidelity and cell integration in 3D-printed biomaterials.
