Beyond Crystallography: Coherent Diffractive Imaging and Atomic Resolution Electron Tomography

Jianwei (John) Miao Department of Physics & Astronomy and California NanoSystems Institute, University of California, Los Angeles X-ray crystallography has been central to the development of many fields of science over the past century. It has now matured to a point that as long as good quality crystals are available, their atomic structure can be…

Enhancing Bone Regeneration with Mesenchymal Stem Cells

Prof. Roland R. Kaunas, Department of Biomedical Engineering, Texas A&M University Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) have been intensely investigated for their ability to promote bone healing. Unfortunately, results have been variable and disappointing due in part to inconsistencies in culture protocols and donor variation. To address these problems, we have optimized conditions for generation…
