Interests
Dr. Heidari's research lies in the intersection of state-of-art light-based additive bioprinting technologies and predictive multi-scale in vitro models of human tissue. Some of his work includes the development of advanced biofabrication techniques to manufacture extremely soft tissue microenvironments with composite biopolymers to produce 3D models of the human vascular interface, and light-based additive manufacturing (AM) processes including the first ever AM process that produces 3D polymeric objects volumetrically and all-at-once through tomographic photopolymerization.Publications
