Lateral inhibition, a juxtacrine signalling mechanism by which a cell adopting a particular fate inhibits neighbouring cells from doing likewise, has been shown to be a robust mechanism for the formation of fine-grained spatial patterns (in which adj...

The influence of bioreactor geometry and the mechanical environment on engineered tissues (2010)
Journal Article
Osborne, J., O'Dea, R. D., Whiteley, J., Byrne, H., & Waters, S. (2010). The influence of bioreactor geometry and the mechanical environment on engineered tissues. Journal of Biomechanical Engineering, 132(5), Article 051006. https://doi.org/10.1115/1.4001160

A three phase model for the growth of a tissue construct within a perfusion bioreactor is examined. The cell population (and attendant extracellular matrix), culture medium and porous scaffold are treated as distinct phases. The bioreactor system is...

A multiphase model for tissue construct growth in a perfusion bioreactor (2010)
Journal Article
O'Dea, R. D., Waters, S. L., & Byrne, H. M. (2010). A multiphase model for tissue construct growth in a perfusion bioreactor. Mathematical Medicine and Biology, 27(2), https://doi.org/10.1093/imammb/dqp003

The growth of a cell population within a rigid porous scaffold in a perfusion bioreactor is studied, using a three phase continuum model of the type presented by Lemon et al. (2006, Multiphase modelling of tissue growth using the theory of mixtures.... Read More about A multiphase model for tissue construct growth in a perfusion bioreactor.

A two-fluid model for tissue growth within a dynamic flow environment (2008)
Journal Article

We study the growth of a tissue construct in a perfusion bioreactor, focussing on its response to the mechanical environment. The bioreactor system is modelled as a two-dimensional channel containing a tissue construct through which a flow of culture...
