UD Tissue-Engineering Research on Vocal Cords

Caption: UD scientists Xinqiao Jia and Randall Duncan are shown with the novel bioreactor which Jia designed. The device can simulate the demanding, high-frequency environment in which vocal cord cells live, vibrating back and forth at up to 100 hertz (100 times a second).
