Early development in humans is characterised by low and variable embryonic viability, reflected in low fecundity and high rates of miscarriage, relative to other mammals.Data from assisted reproduction programmes provides additional evidence that this is largely mediated at the level of embryonic competence and is highly heterogeneous among embryos
Directed Three-Dimensional Growth of Microvascular Cells and Isolated Microvessel Fragments
Tissue engineering has promise as a means for repairing diseased and damaged tissues.A significant challenge in tissue construction relates to the constraints placed on tissue geometries resulting from diffusion limitations.An ability to incorporate a premade vasculature would overcome these difficulties and promote construct viability once implant
