Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Research in the Elvassore laboratory combines engineering principles with basic biological science to rationally understand the mechanisms governing cell and tissue behavior. We developed reprogramming of human somatic cells to hiPSCs with high efficiency using microfluidics. We showed that nascent states of pluripotency, naïve and primed, have full developmental potential in three-dimension (3D), which enables the morphogenesis of functional organoids. We developed intravital 3D bioprinting technology to control, in space and time, the narrative design of 3D culture systems, acting on the ECM architecture. This intravital technology will also provide an unprecedented tool to control organoid shape in vivo, as well as to quantify mechanical forces at the tissue scale during vertebrate morphogenesis.
