Researchers at University of Illinois Urbana–Champaign developed an amazing little bandage, which they call a “microvascular stamp”, that promotes angiogenesis while guiding exactly where the vessels should go.
It is imbued with living cells, positioned in a defined pattern, that release growth factors around a wound and cause vessels to grow where intended. The study will be appearing in next month’s issue of Advanced Materials. MedGadget
