Personalized Approaches to Reconstructive Skeletal Surgery David Dean, PhDPrincipal InvestigatorOsteo Engineering LaboratoryThe Ohio State University Abstract:More and more planning and conducting of reconstructive skeletal surgery is moving from the mind’s eye to computers where one can plan procedures, design and produce surgical aids (e.g., cutting guides, drill guides) and design and produce implantable devices (e.g.,...

Developing retinal laser speckle contrast imaging for the diagnosis of ocular and systemic disease Dan Lipinski, PhDAssociate Professor of Ophthalmology & Visual Sciences, Cell Biology, Neurobiology and AnatomyResearch Director of the Department of Ophthalmology and Visual SciencesMedical College of Wisconsin Abstract:Laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI) is a powerful modality that is capable of rapidly and...

Controlling multi-scale patterning for synthetic developmental biology Louis S. Prahl, PhDPostdoctoral FellowDepartment of BioengineeringUniversity of Pennsylvania Abstract:Embryonic tissue-building processes must hierarchically pattern cells into life-sustaining structures while avoiding organizational defects that compromise organ function. Building mature and hierarchically complex synthetic organs in vitro from patient-derived cells would have a wide range of healthcare applications from...
