The DCG is innovating for a brighter future in women’s reproductive health. PhD candidates Vivian Su and Nick Gigliotti used the bioprinter at the MCP to understand the mechanical properties underlying the structure of the cervix during pregnancy. They presented their findings at the 71st Society for Reproductive Investigation (SRI) Annual Scientific Meeting in Vancouver, Canada. With their findings, they hope to contribute to research aimed at preventing preterm birth, a condition affecting 1 in 10 infants and leading to lifelong health concerns.

Congratulations to Nick Gigliotti on winning SRI’s Best New Investigator Poster Presentation!
