Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Dr. Alicia J. Minor's research focuses on tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, with a particular emphasis on utilizing electrospun nanofibers in biomedical applications. Her work explores angiogenesis, including the role of VEGF in cancer and the potential of pluripotent and mesenchymal stem cells. Recent investigations involve stimulating calcium handling in human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived engineered cardiac tissues to enhance force production. Minor's work also examines wet-spun polycaprolactone scaffolds that provide anisotropic viscoelastic mechanics for engineered cardiac tissues. She has also worked on customized heparinized alginate and collagen hydrogels for tunable, local delivery of angiogenic proteins to improve regeneration in ischemic injury.
