🧬 Take a look inside a 3D tissue bioprinting lab!
NIH postdoctoral fellow Dr. Cristina Antich Acedo demonstrates how cutting-edge bioprinting can recreate human tissue structure. By combining different cell types and biomaterials, researchers can mimic real biological environments with precision.
🔬 This technology helps accelerate the path from discovery to treatment:
• More predictive preclinical models
• Reduced reliance on animal testing
• Faster, more accurate drug development

College in KY is using 3D printers to make face shields for regional hospital: https://t.co/pe0AGOsgZl
This work is supported through @NSF's Advanced Technological Education prog to educate technicians for advanced-tech fields such as 3D printing.
#COVID19
Wearing a cloth face covering CORRECTLY can help prevent the spread of #COVID19 to others. When you go out on essential trips, follow these “do’s”. If you have a child, remember those under age 2 should not wear a face covering. See https://t.co/lxWMe4NUBD.
Hear from physicians on the frontlines of the pandemic. Thank you, @RealDoctorMike for raising awareness, and funding for our amazing healthcare workers.
Adam Fried, Ph.D., Assistant Professor in the Clinical Psychology Program at our Glendale Campus, spoke with @RollingStone Magazine about coping with stress and how to handle moral fatigue during the COVID-19 pandemic. https://t.co/U36iYHHf5E
Ready, set, launch! 🚀 Tomorrow, a trio of space travelers, including Chris Cassidy of @NASA_Astronauts, will lift off aboard a Soyuz 🛰️ for a journey to the @Space_Station.

Students at our Chicago College of Osteopathic Medicine raised money amongst themselves to donate MWU nitrile gloves to local hospitals. In 20 minutes, they surpassed their $540 goal, with the remaining funds being donated toward care packages for healthcare workers. #MWUKind
Today we thank our dedicated Media Resources department employees for working hard to help our faculty prepare online lectures, keeping our students moving towards their career goals. #MWUTogether#MWUOpen
Departments on both campuses have collected surplus PPE supplies, including N95 respirators, F1 face masks and filters, surgical masks, and more. These items have been generously donated to local hospitals and our University clinics to assist those on the front lines. #MWUKind
