$1 million Keck grant backs Stevens lab research on liver regrowth
New approaches will examine mechanical factors affecting liver regeneration.
Stevens named to National Academies New Voices cohort
Kelly Stevens to provide new perspectives to National Academies.
Spatially resolved cellular model built of developing mouse
Stevens lab and colleagues’ sci-Space technique can map embryo development.
Fighting racial inequity by funding Black scientists
UW Bioengineering's Kelly Stevens and Univ. of Michigan's Omolola Eniola-Adefesa lead a national network of biomedical engineers calling to end funding discrimination against Black scientists.
Fund Black Scientists
Commentary with lead author Kelly Stevens: End funding discrimination.
Patterned platforms for tissue engineering
A new approach uses lasers and molecular tethers to pattern 3D cell fate in natural scaffolds for tissue engineering.
Kelly Stevens uses heat to control 3D organ-like tissues
UW Bioengineering's Kelly Stevens Lab and researchers at Rice University created radiatorlike systems to remotely control the positioning and timing of cell functions to build 3-dimensional, artificial, living tissues.
3D organ bioprinting gets a breath of fresh air
Bioprinted tissues with entangled vascular networks for air and blood are a major step toward 3D printing of replacement organs. Bioengineers from University of Washington and Rice University teamed to create the 3D bioprinted vascular networks and tested them in mice.
Engineered human liver tissue “seeds” blossom after transplant, offer an alternative strategy to organ transplantation
Researchers discovered that a "seed" of human liver and supporting cells "blossomed" to 50 times its original size in mice. The work could lead to clinical solutions for organ disease and failure, and serve as an alternative to whole organ transplant.
Bioengineers with UW’s ISCRM lead educational outreach event at Mill Creek Middle School
The event marked the third year the UW Institute for Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine visited Mill Creek Middle School to lead activities designed to teach students about science and health.
