Abstract excerpt
Understanding how cells remember previous mechanical environments to influence their fate, or mechanical memory, informs the design of biomaterials and therapies in medicine. Current regeneration therapies, such as cartilage regeneration procedures, require 2D cell expansion processes to achieve large cell populations critical for the repair of damaged tissues. However, the limit of mechanical priming for...
