Biomaterials are now being used or evaluated clinically as implants to supplement the severe shortage of available human donor organs. To date, however, such implants have mainly been developed as scaffolds to promote the regeneration of failing organs due...

Structure, Function, and Propagation of Information across Living Two, Four, and Eight Node Degree Topologies.

Frontiers in bioengineering and biotechnology

Alagapan S, Franca E, Pan L, Leondopulos S, Wheeler BC, DeMarse TB.
PMID: 26973833
Front Bioeng Biotechnol. 2016 Feb 29;4:15. doi: 10.3389/fbioe.2016.00015. eCollection 2016.

In this study, we created four network topologies composed of living cortical neurons and compared resultant structural-functional dynamics including the nature and quality of information transmission. Each living network was composed of living cortical neurons and were created using...

Compartmentalization and Transport in Synthetic Vesicles.

Frontiers in bioengineering and biotechnology
