OverviewAI-generated summary

Lance Cordes is a graduate student at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville whose research focuses on developing and characterizing novel materials for cell culture applications. His work investigates the use of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) blended with piezoelectric materials to create substrates that respond to mechanical stimuli, offering a potential platform for studying mechanoelectrical signaling in cells. Additionally, Cordes has explored the efficacy of a recombinant fragment of laminin-511 (E8) as a xenofree alternative to Matrigel for the culture and differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) into specific cell types, such as neurovascular cells. His research collaborations include work with Kartik Balachandran, Ishita Tandon, Denise Fabiano do Nascimento, and Alexis P. Applequist, all affiliated with the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.
