#MPQCRetreat2023 Scientific controversy: Should we develop ‘intelligent’ #ECM-inspired materials with or without cells??? Congratulations to Dr Jacqui McGovern and Dr @shahrouzamini for a superb debate, which favoured cell-based materials in the end! 👏👏👏@MaxPlanckQLD

This is it! A year after #MPQCRetreat2022 in Qld, it is now Day1 of #MPQCRetreat2023 in Germany. Catching up with @MaxPlanckQLD colleagues and enjoying a rich and diverse program of lectures, debates, deep down sessions and more, around the fascinating materials science of #ECM!

Shocked but super empowered to receive @arc_gov_au support for my #DECRA #DE24, using bioinspired engineering to understand how bone cells and ECM work together to give rise to bones 🦴 @QUT, @MaxPlanckQLD, @TRI_info. Thank you reviewers, people and family along the way 🙏🙌 1/2

I want to add that this is not my first time applying (see photo 4 years when I failed) and my heart aches for those who didn’t make it. This is a tough system but don’t loose heart, it’s not a reflection of yourself and there will be happier days soon. ❤️ 2/2

For #NationalScienceWeek, #CureCancer volunteer Oli shows us how to make clouds in a jar, courtesy of bone cancer researcher @BockNat, who recommends this experiment to help encourage a love for science in kids! ☁️ 🦠 More experiments here: bit.ly/3YwXuEl

Thrilled to receive the @ABSTE1 Emerging Investigator Award last week in NZ, thank you Team/Mentors, I owe you this success! Thanks to my family too who relentlessly supports me behind the scene. I even received a 1.6m-long drawing (check out the sheep)!🥰🙏@MPQC @TRI_info @QUT

📢 New paper out 👀#AdvancedHealthcareMaterials! 👩‍🔬Check out how GelMA hydrogels and biomimetic culture allow engineering of mineralized, adipose, and tumor tissue microenvironments for cancer studies in vitro and in vivo!! ☺️ @MaxPlanckQLD @QUT @ASBTE1 @AgatheBessot @TRI_info
To better understand the role of BM-adipocytes in advanced prostate cancer, @BockNat and co-workers developed bioengineered tumor platforms using GelMA hydrogels. This approach could be critical in the future to treat early-stage tumor formation. 👉ow.ly/LQSm50N0tMO

I have a passion for HDR & ECR development so I’m super excited to learn and serve by co-leading the internal engagement stream of the Centre for Biomedical Technologies #CBT for 2023! Look out HDRs and ECRs, we will soon be in action @QUT for an exciting program ahead! @ASBTE1

Ever wondered if #GelMA supports patient-derived #breastcancer #organoids for drug testing? Well it does but our #GelSH #hydrogel does it better, >3 weeks with phenomenal glandular morphology!😃@QUT, @MaxPlanckQLD, @AdvanceQld, @GelomicsPtyLtd, @TRI_Info,👉mdpi.com/1999-4923/15/1/261

The #BrisbaneCancerConference 3D cancer models session was fun to co-chair with @HaassLab @BockNat. Such strong ex vivo cancer organoid research here in Brisbane, highlighted by the talented young researchers who presented today, much of which is born from #CPAC. Bravo!

To address the low-throughput of melt electrowriting we added a second nozzle. It was more complex that you'd think but with a bonus of being able to make semi‐woven structures with @meltelectrospin @elena_dejuanp and Raquel Sanchez Diaz onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
