Dr. Trivia Frazier joined with an international group of researchers to publish a paper, "Decellularized Human Umbilical Tissue-Derived Hydrogels Promote Proliferation and Chondrogenic Differentiation of Mesenchymal Stem Cells" in the journal, Bioengineering. The study discussed in the paper established a protocol for the formuatlion of a hydrogel from decellularized human umbilical cord tissue, and assessed its application in the proliferation and differentation of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells along the chondrogenic lineage.
