Journal Article
Vaithilingam, J., Sanjuan‐Alberte, P., Campora, S., Rance, G. A., Jiang, L., Thorpe, J., Burroughs, L., Tuck, C. J., Denning, C., Wildman, R. D., Hague, R. J. M., Alexander, M. R., & Rawson, F. J. (2019). Multifunctional Bioinstructive 3D Architectures to Modulate Cellular Behavior. Advanced Functional Materials, 29(38), Article 1902016. https://doi.org/10.1002/adfm.201902016

Biological structures control cell behavior via physical, chemical, electrical, and mechanical cues. Approaches that allow us to build devices that mimic these cues in a combinatorial way are lacking due to there being no suitable instructive materia...

Water-Based 3D Inkjet Printing of an Oral Pharmaceutical Dosage Form (2019)
Journal Article
Cader, H. K., Rance, G. A., Alexander, M. R., Gonçalves, A. D., Roberts, C. J., Tuck, C. J., & Wildman, R. D. (2019). Water-Based 3D Inkjet Printing of an Oral Pharmaceutical Dosage Form. International Journal of Pharmaceutics, 564, 359-368. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijpharm.2019.04.026

Inkjet printing is a form of additive manufacturing where liquid droplets are selectively deposited onto a substrate followed by solidification. The process provides significant potential advantages for producing solid oral dosage forms or tablets, i... Read More about Water-Based 3D Inkjet Printing of an Oral Pharmaceutical Dosage Form.

Geometry alone influences stem cell differentiation in a precision 3D printed stem cell niche (2018)
Preprint / Working Paper
Prina, E., Sidney, L., Tromayer, M., Moore, J., Liska, R., Bertolin, M., Ferrari, S., Hopkinson, A., Dua, H., Yang, J., Wildman, R., & Rose, F. R. Geometry alone influences stem cell differentiation in a precision 3D printed stem cell niche

Stem cells within epithelial tissues reside in anatomical structures known as crypts that are known to contribute to the mechanical and chemical milieu important for function. To date, epithelial stem cell therapies have largely ignored the niche and... Read More about Geometry alone influences stem cell differentiation in a precision 3D printed stem cell niche.

Synthesis of methacrylate-terminated block copolymers with reduced transesterification by controlled ring-opening polymerization (2018)
Journal Article
Ruiz-Cantu, L. A., Pearce, A. K., Burroughs, L., Bennett, T. M., Vasey, C. E., Wildman, R., Irvine, D. J., Alexander, C., & Taresco, V. (2019).
