- This work presents a novel 3D biopolymer based pancreatic cancer model. We are the first to engineer and present a model viable for several months. Our work has received clinical interest from the University of Liverpool, Queen Mary University, the Royal Surrey County Hospital and UCLH, for a drug and/or radiotherapy screening tool. Additionally, it has received recognition in international conferences including an invited talk to TERMIS 2019, i.e., the most prestigious conference in the field of tissue engineering. Furthermore, the work led to the further development of a multicellular novel pancreatic cancer model by our group.
