Materials for stem cell factories of the future (2014)
Journal Article
Celiz, A. D., Smith, J. G., Langer, R., Anderson, D. G., Barrett, D. A., Winkler, D. A., …Alexander, M. R. (2014). Materials for stem cell factories of the future. Nature Materials, 13(6), 570-579. https://doi.org/10.1038/nmat3972

The materials community is now identifying polymeric substrates that could permit translation of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) from lab-based research to industrial scale biomedicine. Well defined materials are required to allow cell banking a... Read More about Materials for stem cell factories of the future.

Combined hydrogels that switch human pluripotent stem cells from self-renewal to differentiation (2014)
Journal Article
Dixon, J. E., Shah, D. A., Rogers, C., Hall, S., Weston, N., Parmenter, C. D., …Shakesheff, K. M. (2014). Combined hydrogels that switch human pluripotent stem cells from self-renewal to differentiation. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 111(15), 5580-5585. https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1319685111

The ability of materials to define the architecture and microenvironment experienced by cells provides new opportunities to direct the fate of human pluripotent stem cells (HPSCs) [Robinton DA, Daley GQ (2012) Nature 481(7381):295-305]. However, the... Read More about Combined hydrogels that switch human pluripotent stem cells from self-renewal to differentiation.
