3D Models of Health and Disease

New publication alert! Congratulations to @UmberCheema and the entire team on this important work — it’s a privilege to have contributed. I’m grateful for the opportunity to stay connected to academic research while working at the intersection of science and venture capital.

Great to see @Eirini_Velliou presenting her exciting progress on engineering advanced 3D multicellular models for pancreatic cancer using Kirkstall’s QuasiVivo system.

Dr Ed Carter (@lifesciencebath @uniofbath) has introduced our first keynote speaker Professor @UmberCheema (Bioengineering @UCL), who is giving a fascinating talk titled “Advanced biomimetic 3D models to mimic tumour-stroma”

Congratulations @Anuja_Upadhyay_ on the successful defence of your PhD thesis. Patient derived cells from chronic kidney disease cause fibrosis in tissue models- allowing drug testing in vitro! Thank you Profs' Ponticos and Rosano for examining and @ucb_uk for funding

Discover how Kirkstall’s bioreactor is enabling groundbreaking research on pancreatic cancer at @ucl. Professor @Eirini_Velliou explains how her team is studying cell behaviour and chemotherapy responses using advanced in vitro models. Full video: kirkstall.com/quasi-vivo-cas…

Happy new year from the UCL Centre for 3D models of Health and Disease! Wishing you a prosperous and peaceful 2025! @UmberCheema @Eirini_Velliou @susan_heavey @VivekMudera Darren Player
