BE Doctoral Dissertation Defense: “Quantitative Methods for Improving Neurostimulation Therapy in Epilepsy” (Brittany Scheid)
The Department of Bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania and Dr. Brian Litt are pleased to announce the Doctoral Dissertation Defense of Brittany Scheid. Title: QUANTITATIVE METHODS FOR IMPROVING NEUROSTIMULATION THERAPY […]
BE Seminar: “Programming multicellular interactions and organization using synthetic cell adhesion molecules” (Adam Stevens, UCSF)
Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) are ubiquitous in multicellular organisms and specify precise cellular interactions in processes as diverse as tissue development and immune cell trafficking. We have generated an array […]
BE Seminar: “Probing Metabolism Across Scales” (Yihui Shen, Princeton University)
Metabolism supports the biosynthetic and energetic demand of all living creatures. Over decades, we have accumulated knowledge of how individual enzymes work in vitro, but we don’t have a good […]
BE Seminar: “Tissue Architecture Driven by Immune Cells” (John Hickey, Stanford University)
“Tissue Architecture Driven by Immune Cells” John has developed multiplexed spatial omics techniques and computational tools to decode critical interactions within the multidimensional data (e.g., multiscale models and deep learning […]
BE Seminar: “Bioengineered Platforms for Mechanistic Understandings and Therapeutic Interventions” (Shyni Varghese, Duke University)
This talk will be held in person in Glandt Forum; snacks will be served. Regenerative medicine is an interdisciplinary field that has significant promise for treating compromised tissues and organs. […]
BE Seminar: “Opportunities and Support for the BME Research Community from NSF” (Laurel Kuxhaus, NSF)
This seminar will be held in person in Glandt Forum; snacks will be served. “Opportunities and Support for the BME Research Community from NSF” The National Science Foundation (NSF) supports […]
BE Seminar: “MAPing Principles and Applications to Endogenous Repair” (Tatiana Segura, Duke University)
This seminar will be held in person in Glandt Forum; snacks will be served. “MAPing Principles and Applications to Endogenous Repair” Microporous annealed particle (MAP) scaffolds are materials composed of […]
BE Seminar: “Engineering therapeutic immunity using (nano)biomaterials” (Natalie Artzi, Harvard Medical School)
This seminar will be held in person only; snacks will be provided. Immunomodulatory therapies have advanced to clinical trials over the past decade for the treatment of a range of […]
BE Seminar: “Building Tissues: Engineering Complexity Through Biomaterial Design” (Brendan Harley, University of Illinois)
Advances in the fields of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine require biomaterials that instruct, rather than simply permit, a desired cellular response. A major challenge to progress in our field […]
