Abstract
This schematic displays various biophysical cues that can be used during the differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells to yield specific vascular cell types. The goal is that these biomechanical cues used during differentiation will result in cells with the functional characteristics necessary for withstanding the physiological environment. This will then allow us to engineer complex tissues tailored for patient-specific therapies.200
