Utilization of a 3-D tissue engineered model to investigate the effects of perfusion on gynecologic cancer biology

Among gynecologic malignancies, ovarian cancer (OC) has the poorest survival rate, and its clinical management remains challenging due to the high rate of recurrence and chemoresistance. Improving survival for these patients is critical, although this requires the ability to translate preclinical st...
