Meet Rashidah, a Senior Research Engineer at SMART's Critical Analytics for Manufacturing Personalized-medicine interdisciplinary research group (IRG). Rashidah’s research focuses on unlocking the potential of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) by exploring various culture conditions and treatments to enhance their growth and immune-modulating abilities. MSCs are crucial in regenerative medicine as they can be converted into different cell types, such as bone, cartilage, and fat cells, enabling the repair and replacement of damaged tissues. Through meticulous analysis, Rashidah aims to optimise MSCs for medical applications, contributing to advancements in regenerative medicine.
