Congratulations to Steven Caliari for the acceptance of his new article, ‘Collagen-GAG scaffold biophysical properties bias MSC lineage choice in the presence of mixed soluble signals,’ in the journal Tissue Engineering. This paper describes pitfalls associated with the use of mixed media solutions to drive osteo vs. chondro differentiation of mesenchymal progenitor cells within 3D collagen biomaterials. Excellent work!
