Optical imaging technique gives a closer look at new ways to grow heart cells
New research published in the journal Biophotonics Discovery describes an imaging method to observe stem-cell derived cardiomyocytes grown in a variety of biosynthetic hydrogels and assess the ideal conditions for successful growth.
Morgridge Postdoctoral Fellow Danielle Desa adapted optical imaging techniques she learned with the Melissa Skala Lab to support stem cell biology research in the Bioinspired Materials Lab led by William Murphy at UW–Madison’s Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine Center.
