We thoroughly enjoyed having UMN Biomedical Eng Dept. Chair Brenda Ogle stop by the Forty Acres to share her work focusing on the development of novel bioink formulations that enable 3D #bioprinting of complex #cardiac tissues.

Thank you Brenda Ogle, Chair of BME at U of Minnesota ⁦UMN Biomedical Eng⁩ , for visiting ⁦Texas BME⁩ and giving a stellar presentation on tissue engineering via bioprinting of stem cells and ECM proteins.

I had a great time doing an escape room puzzle with my lab group today. Completed with 6 seconds to spare!

It was fun hosting UMN CSE Dean Andrew Alleyne Andrew Alleyne in the David Odde Lab this week.
