VEGF photopatterning project accepted by Acta Biomaterialia!

Congratulations to current trainees Jackie Pence and Dan Weisgerber, as well as our collaborators at U. Illinois (Ryan Bailey with Rory Alsop) for the acceptance of our new article, ‘Photopatterning of VEGF within collagen-GAG scaffolds can induce a spatially confined response in human umbilical vein endothelial cells,’ in Acta Biomaterialia. This paper is part of project funded by the NSF and NIH that is aimed at developing photopatterning approaches to tether activity-inducing growth factors within three-dimensional collagen biomaterials. Congrats to all!
