Jongkil Kim Publishes a Paper in ACS Biomaterials Science & Engineering

Congratulations to Jongkil and his co-authors on their accepted manuscript in ACS Biomaterials Science & Engineering titled “Combining TGF-β1 and Mechanical Anchoring to Enhance Collagen Fiber Formation and Alignment in Tissue-Engineered Menisci.” This study investigated collagen fiber formation and alignment in tissue-engineered menisci using TGF-β1 in combination with variations in media glucose concentrations and mechanical boundary conditions. The results point to the need for optimization of culture environments specifically geared toward enhancing collagen fiber formation and organization.
