Current systems contain limitations including the presence of extracellular matrix and diffusion limitations. Our team developed a system that allows for sterile 3D tissue development, mimics in vivo attachment points, has a scaffold-less construction, and can mechanically stimulate developing muscle tissue in vitro. We believe this in vitro tissue model will not only allow a better understanding of developing muscle tissue, but can also be used as a screening modality for evaluation of future therapeutic treatments for muscle diseases and volumetric muscle loss."; "Worcester Polytechnic Institute"; "2012-04-25"; "2012"; "2020-01-17T01:16:20.882831052-05:00"^^; "E-project-042512-122709"; ; "Major Qualifying Project"; "Biomedical Engineering"; ; ; "http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"; ; ; "This report represents the work of one or more WPI undergraduate students submitted to the faculty as evidence of completion of a degree requirement.
