New paper published in ACS Biomaterials

This work develops a new microfluidic chip to study 3D osteocyte networks under pulsatile unidirectional fluid flow stimuli (PUFFS) that could potentially allow researchers to gain crucial insights into how bone senses and adapts to mechanical loads. Congratulations to Anna-Blessing Merife and all co-authors!
