Biomimetic Materials and Their Utility in Modeling the 3-Dimensional Neural Environment
The brain is a complex 3-dimensional structure, the organization of which provides a local environment that directly influences the survival, proliferation, differentiation, migration, and plasticity of neurons. To probe the effects of damage and disease on these cells, a synthetic environment is ne...
