I did NOT know that grafted skin can’t grow given current methods! Would never have considered this unfortunate side effect…
Tune in to our latest episode by my cohost, Dr. Alicia Botes, featuring @IvHengel and his discussion of bioprinted skin!

It was great working with @MRSBulletin. This biomaterial platform can be a great tool to expand available options for male contraceptives. Check out the other fantastic developments in this area @MaleBCNow

New from #MRSBulletin: Male contraceptives trail female methods in research, efficacy, ease-of-use, and variety. Vas-occlusion technologies have potential for high efficacy, single injection, noninvasive removal, and the avoidance of hormonal release.
