The students are advised by Mechanical Engineering Professor Yun Chen.

Jung, a Mechanical Engineering PhD student, is invited to give a talk about the curvature effect on cell mechanics. Flournoy and Elawad (co-advised by Professor Sun Hoon Kang) will present posters about their projects on cell mechanics and 3D bioprinting, respectively. We wish them the best of luck in Philadelphia!
