Last week, I had the pleasure of attending #ASBTE2025 in Brisbane. Great few days of cutting-edge #biomaterials science and reconnecting with colleagues and friends!
Fantastic talks, posters, and discussions around #biopolymers, #bioprinting, and more.
Till next year in Adelaide! @asbte.bsky.social

We have been exploring polymer mechanochemistry to promote dynamic activities in hydrogel biomaterials.

In this new paper, we integrated 2 responsive linkages into PEG-based hydrogels, where force and light were used as triggers to change chemistry. Check it out!

I really enjoyed visiting Singapore this week for #ICBME2024. The meeting at #NUS had >700 delegates from >30 countries. Honoured to give a keynote in #Mechanobiology and invited talk in #TumorEngineering, but the best bit was catching up with old friends and making new ones….oh, and chile 🦀 🤤

Do you love 🍔BigMACS🍔 as much as we do? Big mechanically-active culture systems, that is! We just released a computational tissue engineering preprint from Sabrina’s PhD thesis on simulating soft robot MSC bioreactors. A team effort across universities and countries.
