University of Illinois Receives New Institutional Research Training Grant from the National Institutes of Health

Originally published on: 2016-07-07 While biological understanding has long focused on understanding the behavior of single cell types, there is a growing realization that the microenvironment of a tissue may determine its fate. Hence, a quantitative understanding of the tissue microenvironment (TiMe) is critical for advancing biomedical science and healthcare in applications ranging from regenerative […]
