We are engineering HA hydrogels to provide an environment for MSC chondrogenesis, including investigating the influence of receptor interactions, the surrounding culture environment, and the degradation behavior on matrix production and distribution within these gels.  Overall, these advanced HA hydrogels provide us the opportunity to investigate diverse and controlled material properties for a range of biomedical applications.
