Congratulations to Steven Caliari and Manny Ramirez for the publication of a new article, ‘The development of collagen-GAG scaffold-membrane composites for tendon tissue engineering,’ in the journal Biomaterials.
Welcome Rebecca
The Harley Lab welcomes a new graduate student – Rebecca Lyons. Rebecca joins us after completing her M.S. from the University of Michigan with Dr. Jan Stegemann. Further congratulations for her selection as a NSF GRFP awardee for 2010 – 2013!
Bhushan performing summer research in Germany
Bhushan Mahadik is spending the summer working with Dr. Timm Schroeder (Institute of Stem Cell Research, Helmholtz Zentrum München, Munich, Germany) on live-cell tracing of HSC fate.
Harley Lab receives American Cancer Society funding
The Harley Lab has been awarded a grant from the American Cancer Society (Illinois Division) to develop bone marrow mimics to examine the role cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions plan in fate decisions of hematopoietic stem cells.
Steven’s paper accepted in Biomaterials
Congratulations to Steven Caliari for the publication of a new article, ‘The effect of anisotropic collagen-GAG scaffolds and growth factor supplementation on tendon cell recruitment, alignment, and metabolic activity,’ which will appear later this year in Biomaterials.
Harley Lab receives proof of concept funding
The Harley Lab has been awarded a Proof-Of-Concept grant from the Institute for Genomic Biology to develop collagen-based scaffolds for tendon repair.
First Harley Lab article published!!!
The Harley Lab has had its first journal article accepted for publication! ‘The generation of biomolecular patterns in highly porous collagen-GAG scaffolds using direct photolithography’ will appear later this year in Biomaterials.
Welcome Sara
The Harley Lab welcome our first postdoctoral fellow, Dr. Sara Pedron Haba, who joins our group from a post-doc at Phillips.
