Left heart simulators have advanced, but replicating the complexities of the right ventricle remains a noticeable gap. In our recent paper in @NatureCVR, we addressed this challenge, shifting the spotlight to the right heart. https://t.co/Jc2xAMy7vT

This is a new additive manufacturing technology that we term as DAVP (Deep-Penetration Acoustic Volumetric Printing) -- a multi-year work in collaboration with Prof. Junjie Yao @yaojj02's team: https://t.co/oPNsIz7iZQ.

If you cannot explain something in simple terms, you don't understand it.

Delivered a lecture at the invitation of Gyeongsangbuk-do Office of Education Science Institute's BIOSEM Creative Convergence Educators Research Community. It was an incredibly meaningful experience that once again made me respect the teachers/professors who guided me.

SEAS researchers develop new gelatin-infused ink that enables 3D printing of a functional heart ventricle that mimics beating like a human heart. Ink allows heart muscle cells printed in the shape of a ventricle to align and beat in coordination. https://t.co/v6Be1lHlKp

@mfalandt @ISBioFab @mfalandt Therefore, to minimize this effect, we monitored the electrical signal after 30 minutes of stabilization time after changing the medium.

[Uijung Yong @_eu_uj]

@mfalandt @ISBioFab Second, the latter is correct except for the moment when I change the medium every two days. As you mentioned, the heart's electrical signal is influenced by ions, nutrient concentration, oxygen saturation, and pH levels in the culture medium.

[Uijung Yong @_eu_uj]

@mfalandt @ISBioFab Thank you for the positive response and your questions. :)) Regarding your first question, our current findings demonstrate that cardiac tissue can be successfully cultured for up to 28 days. However, we expect to be able to culture longer than that.

[Uijung Yong @_eu_uj]

@RicLevato @DG_HWNAG @hychoi0208 @ISBioFab They minimized drug absorption into the culture platform by fabricating the platform using polystyrene plastic. :))

[Uijung Yong @_eu_uj]

@RicLevato @DG_HWNAG @hychoi0208 @ISBioFab Thank you so much for your interest in my research!
I don't have any plans to do that right now, but replacing the PDMS used in our chamber with polystyrene might solve the drug absorption problem, as in Yimu Zhao et al's study (Please refer this https://t.co/YpAvqWcYRZ)
