Summary
The overarching goal of this research is to find a new and effective way to turn stem cells, cells that have the potential to be transformed/differentiated into any type of cell, into chondrocytes, a specific type of cell that is important for cartilage repair. The focus of this Faculty Early Career Development project is on exploring a technique called electrospraying, where electricity and mechanical forces (rather than special/usually expensive differentiating media) are used to guide the transformation of the stem cells into chondrocytes. This innovative method involves utilizing the pati
