This study proved the hypothesis that textile-based tissue engineering would yield artificial tissues with similar physical, biological, and mechanical properties as their natural counterparts. For fibers, I \u003C\/a\u003E\u003Ca name=\u0022_Hlk25681732\u0022\u003Einvestigated cell adhesion, proliferation, and morphology on electrohydrodynamic (EHD) direct-written fibers with controllable surface roughness. The results provided guidelines about controlling the surface roughness of single fibers to achieve desirable cell responses. For yarns, I investigated the mechanism of wet electrospinning and fabricated yarns with controllable mechanical properties. For scaffolds, I \u003C\/a\u003Eassembled wet electrospun yarns into scaffolds \u003Cem\u003Evia\u003C\/em\u003E textile technology for two case studies. The results indicated that the textile-based scaffolds could satisfy the physical, biological, and mechanical requirements for skin and vascular tissue engineering. This study will enhance the robustness of textile technology in tissue engineering and provide new perspectives for the design and fabrication of scaffolds. The modified electrospinning technology will greatly extend the usefulness of electrospinning in tissue engineering and related fields.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Design, Fabrication and Characterization of Electrospun Fibers, Yarns, and Scaffolds for Textile-inspired Tissue Engineering"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2021-04-01 18:02:58","changed_gmt":"2021-04-01 18:02:58","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2021-04-13T14:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2021-04-13T16:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2021-04-13T16:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2021-04-13 18:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2021-04-13 20:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2021-04-13 20:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78761","name":"Faculty\/Staff"},{"id":"78771","name":"Public"},{"id":"174045","name":"Graduate students"},{"id":"78751","name":"Undergraduate students"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
