Badger Cafe: Disease in a Dish

Badger Cafe: Disease in a Dish — Using Tissue Engineering to Uncover Disease Pathways and Potential Treatments

Don’t miss this talk about approaches used at UW–Madison to create engineered platforms that imitate features of healthy and diseased tissues, enabling researchers to determine the cues responsible for regulating tissue development and disease progression. You’ll learn how researchers have applied these disease-mimicking platforms to understand the signals that drive progression of diseases such as heart-valve calcification and cancer.

Speaker: Kristyn Masters, Vilas Distinguished Professor and vice chair, UW–Madison’s Department of Biomedical Engineering
