Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Vitali Maldonado's research focuses on mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and their therapeutic applications, particularly in regenerative medicine. His work investigates the potential of MSCs and their derived extracellular vesicles for tissue repair. Maldonado has examined the effects of specific compounds, such as dasatinib and quercetin, on MSC phenotypes and functions. He also studies the long-term in vitro expansion of bone marrow-derived MSCs and their associated phenotypic changes. Additionally, Maldonado has explored the integration of virtual reality into biomedical engineering laboratory education, documenting challenges and lessons learned from implementing immersive learning experiences.

Maldonado collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville and the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. His scholarship metrics include an h-index of 6, with 15 total publications and 242 total citations.
