Abstract
The goal of our laboratory is to develop micro- and nano-scale bioprintingtechniques for the direct-write of 3D designer scaffolds used for tissueengineering and regenerative medicine. In this webinar, I will present mylaboratory’s recent research efforts in femtosecond laser nano-printing andprojection 3D bioprinting to create 3D scaffolds using a variety ofbiomaterials. These 3D biomaterials are functionalized with precise control of micro-architecture,mechanical (e.g. stiffness and Poisson’s ratio), chemical, and biologicalproperties. Design, fabrication, and experimental results will be discussed. Suchfunctional biomaterials allow us to investigate cell-microenvironmentinteractions at nano- and micro-scales in response to integrated physical andchemical stimuli. From these fundamental studies we can create both in vitro and in vivo tissue models for precision tissue engineering andregenerative medicine.

学术报告2：Three-DimensionalBioprinting and Evaluation of Process-Induced Cell Injury
YongHuang, Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, University ofFlorida, Gainesville, FL 32611
Abstract
Maskless jetbased(including laser- and inkjetbased) threedimensional (3D) cell printing is arevolutionary advance for printing arbitrary cell patterns as well as creatingheterogeneous living constructs. Most importantly, cell printing provides apromising solution to the problem of organ donor shortages by printing 3Dtissue/organ constructs for implantation, resulting in what is known as organprinting. Unfortunately, process-induced thermomechanical injury to cells aswell as other biomaterials during printing still poses a significant challengeto ensuring a satisfactory post-transfer cell viability. As previous studiesshow, process-induced thermomechanical loading can dramatically increase thecell mortality rate if printing conditions are not properly selected.
Using a representativelaser cell printing technology (modified laser-induced forward transfer) as ajet-based model system, we have been addressing the aforementionedprinting-induced cell injury challenge by studying 1) the process-induced cellthermomechanical loading profiles during the cell droplet formation and landingprocesses, two key processes during cell printing; and 2) the post-transfercell viability based on the process-induced thermomechanical loading profiles.In this talk, the perspective of ongoing cell printing research is firstintroduced. Then the modeling of the laser-induced cell droplet formation andsuccessive landing processes and resultant cell mechanical loading isdiscussed. Finally, the relationship between the post-transfer cellinjury/viability and the mechanical loading information is captured through anapoptosis signaling pathway-based modeling approach.
