\"Science<\/a>For this manuscript, titled \u201cMicrophysiological model of PIK3CA-driven vascular malformations reveals a role of dysregulated Rac1 and mTORC1\/2 in lesion formation\u201d, Dr. Wen Yih Aw<\/a>, a biomolecular engineering (BME) postdoctoral fellow in the Polacheck Lab, led a highly collaborative effort that involved contributions from nearly every member of the Polacheck Lab, along with Dr. Julie Blatt<\/a> in Pediatric Hematology and Oncology at UNC, Dr. Boyce Griffith<\/a> in Applied Math, and Dr. Anthony Hickey<\/a> at the Eshleman School of Pharmacy. By developing a microfluidic model of vascular malformations, Dr. Aw and colleagues demonstrate novel signaling mechanisms in lesion formation and test potential interventions. The work is featured in the 17 February 2023, Volume 9, Issue 7, of the journal Science Advances and can be read online<\/a> now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
