Shaping intestinal organoids: Engineering crypt curvature to guide stem cell niches https://t.co/AiGzdppRfY

[Organoid News @organoidscience]

In this @CellBiomat study, Dr. F. Max Yavitt (@LabMaxYav), along with the @AnsethGroup and colleagues, used a photodegradable hydrogel platform to define photosoftened regions that directed the formation of intestinal crypts. #organoids

The CReaTE Group had a lot of fun in Auckland for HealthTech Week #HTW24. It was great to share our work and learn more about what is happening in the NZ #medtech community. Congrats to CReaTE PhD student Theresa on her second place presentation! @AxeNorb @Tim_WoodfieldNZ

[Niko Di Caprio @CaprioNiko]

Please stop by @BurdickLab Poster 088 today at #wbc2024 to see some cool, unpublished work relating to our granular composites! We make them bend now!

[Khoon Lim @Khoonono]

Attention @ASBTE1 members! Please come along to our AGM tmr if you’re at @2024Wbc

[Kaustav Bera @KaustavBera11]

Witnessed @AnsethGroup alum, friend and amazing scientist @LabMaxYav on both sides of the stage @2024Wbc! Max co-chaired the Hydrogel 2 session and also gave a talk on some of the interesting ongoing work in his postdoc lab @Tim_WoodfieldNZ

[F. Max Yavitt @LabMaxYav]

Apologies to @gtserop for missing your presentation 🙈 but Kaustav was talking about me!

[F. Max Yavitt @LabMaxYav]

Great presentation from @KaustavBera11 @AnsethGroup today at #wbc2024, continuing our photopatterned organoid work. It’s great to see how these models are progressing!

[F. Max Yavitt @LabMaxYav]

Excited to be on my way to #wbc2024! I’ll be presenting some recent work from our group (+@Khoonono’s and others) on diffusion microfluidics. Be sure to also catch @Tim_WoodfieldNZ’s keynote. Looking forward to some great talks.

[F. Max Yavitt @LabMaxYav]

Had a great time presenting at the MedTech Innovation in Christchurch event yesterday. It's amazing to see such a vibrant community come together to celebrate local achievements in #medtech. Congrats to @Veenendaal_L on her 3rd place presentation! @Tim_WoodfieldNZ @MedtechNZ

[COMPASS @COMPASS_RG]

Last week marked a momentous occasion as @PedroLavrador1 earned Summa Cum Laude honors for the outstanding defense of his doctoral thesis! 👏👏

All the @COMPASS_RG members wish Pedro the best of luck in all his future endeavors! 🍀

[F. Max Yavitt @LabMaxYav]

It has been a couple of months but I am happy to announce that I finished my PhD in @AnsethGroup last summer and have started a postdoc with @Tim_WoodfieldNZ @otago. I'm excited to be in Aotearoa New Zealand and I'm looking forward to this new chapter of science!

[ASBTE @ASBTE1]

Abstract submissions have been extended!!! You nave have until 20th Oct to get your abstracts in for one of our regional showcases. Details and submission here 👇

@CRoffay .@LabMaxYav and I showed that localized increases in tension visualized with FlipperTR mirror patterns of membrane depolarization (which template YAP expression/symmetry breaking) in photopatterned intestinal organoids! 😎🤓 https://t.co/qoOZ8c7Lyq

[Anseth Group @AnsethGroup]

.@LabMaxYav’s second article of 2023 is out in @SciRobotics — a fantastic collaboration with Ning Wang, involving one of our photodegradable hydrogel chemistries. Congratulations to Max and all involved!

[Anseth Group @AnsethGroup]

🎉 Congratulations @LabMaxYav, @bruceekirk, @drblatch and collaborators for our latest in @ScienceAdvances! Max + coauthors used a photoadaptable hydrogel to manipulate intestinal organoid shape —> altered membrane properties and templated differentiation.
