In Vitro Models to Study the Progression of Liver Fibrosis

FOCμS LAB
Digital Commons

Research Overview

Led by Dr. Srivatsan Kidambi, this project is expected to have a progressive impact on the study of liver fibrosis and related fields because the availability of a liver model that retains liver microenvironment (LME) will facilitate understanding of the molecular mechanisms that underlie LME activities in mechanisms critical for the maintenance of liver biology.
