Why register in the CBS mentorship and professional development program? A PhD for what and then what? This is a question I asked myself during my PhD and my two postdocs...
One of the most fundamental characteristics of cancer cells that make them different from normal cells is their capacity to proliferate indefinitely...
Increasing the overall sensitivity of sensing materials is a key feature in their application. As technology advances, not only is customizing the electrical conductivity of the material of importance, but many applications also require biocompatibility...
Significant bone loss due to internal or external factors, remains a large orthopedic challenge. Current interventions use either autograft and allograft sources that carry a significant complication burden and show limited functional recovery, emphasizing the demand for an alternative therapeutic solution...
Adipose tissue has a high capacity for expansion and regression throughout mammalian life. Nevertheless, following reconstructive surgeries designed to augment adipose depots, or tissue injury, adipose tissue displays limited regenerative capacity, and is instead often replaced with scar tissue...
