So excited to share that one of my postdoc work in Mooney's group has just come out! Here we developed an implantable soft robotic device capable of generating in vivo mechanical stimulation for mechano-therapy.

Can’t believe it’s already been over a year since I started my faculty journey. Excited to share my FIRST-EVER corresponding author paper, just out in Science Advances! It’s on spatiotemporal mechanical modulation of hydrogels. science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

Super excited to see her talk once again. Please join us!
Pretty excited for @genentech's @Joanna_Y_Lee's seminar tomorrow on 3D models of immune excluded tumor microenvironments! Lunch provided. 😎 (In-person only.) @hseas @theChaudhurilab #TopicsBioEng.

Another beautiful work from our group. Yes! Matrix viscoelasticity matters for organoids. Congrats to Alberto.
Our paper on how matrix viscoelasticity controls tissue spatial and temporal organisation is now out in @NatureMaterials. @hseas @wyssinstitute @TheCrick @KCL_Physics @ERC_Research nature.com/articles/s41563-0…

Thanks for highlighting the work!
An implantable tissue adhesive soft actuator adheres to muscle, generating mechanical stimulation, and activates mechanosensing pathways for prevention of atrophy in disuse muscles.

Thanks for highlighting the work!
A muscle wasted is not a muscle lost: MAGENTA, a mechanically active adhesive device developed by Wyss Institute researchers, could prevent and treat muscle atrophy, a symptom of ALS and MS, in the future. wyss.harvard.edu/news/wastin…
