Engineering In Vitro Differentiation Microenvironments to Study Heart Valve Calcification (2015)
Conference Proceeding
Yang, Y., Bhunia, S., Kontronias, R., Qamar, S., Srinivasan, L., Ipek, T., …Lyu, L. (2015). Engineering In Vitro Differentiation Microenvironments to Study Heart Valve Calcification.

Valvular calcification is one of the most common cardiac conditions affecting the elderly population. The reasons behind the calcification process and the cellular mechanisms involved are not well understood. Valve interstitial cells (VICs) are predo...

4-D Hippocampus Measurements of Neurite Growth in vitro (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Dempsey, K., Lam, K., Smith, W., Collins, D., Jones, D. M., Yang, Y., & Richardson, J. (2014). 4-D Hippocampus Measurements of Neurite Growth in vitro. . https://doi.org/10.1109/cit.2014.160

Current research in neural tissue engineering relies heavily on in vivo animal models of neurological injury. This has a number of major drawbacks. Using innovative imaging technologies and allied data analytics, this paper presents our current work... Read More about 4-D Hippocampus Measurements of Neurite Growth in vitro.

Pharmacy students’ perceptions on interacting with people with mental health problems: a qualitative study (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Sidhu, J., Zamanb, H., & White, S. (2014). Pharmacy students’ perceptions on interacting with people with mental health problems: a qualitative study.

Previous research suggests that pharmacy workplace contact and the mental health content of undergraduate pharmacy education may not improve students’ negative attitudes towards people with mental health problems.1 However, studies have not explored...

Are umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells advantageous over bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells for cell therapy in orthopaedics? (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Mennan, C., Owen, S., Mayrogonatou, E., Kletsas, D., Oldershaw, R., Richardson, J., & Roberts, S. (2014). Are umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells advantageous over bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells for cell therapy in orthopaedics?. . https://doi.org/10.1016/j.joca.2014.02.924

Purpose: Mesenchymal Stem cells (MSC) from umbilical cords (UC) are of increasing interest for cell therapy in degenerative musculoskeletal disorders as they present little ethical consideration and are reported to contain immune privileged cells, wh...

A computational approach to quantifying axon regeneration in the presence of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) (2013)
Conference Proceeding
Lam, K. P., Dempsy, K. P., Smith, W. A., Wright, K. T., Masri, W. E., & Richardson, J. B. (2013). A computational approach to quantifying axon regeneration in the presence of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). . https://doi.org/10.1109/ner.2013.6696240

Transplantation of bone marrow stromal cells has shown to encourage functional recovery in animal models of spinal cord injury (SCI) and recent clinical trials suggest possible recovery also in humans. However, two fundamental barriers to the develop... Read More about A computational approach to quantifying axon regeneration in the presence of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs).
