Emphasis:
The emphasis is on the development of living materials and associated computational models for biomedical intervention.
Projects might focus on:
- elucidating important engineering design rules or key foundational principles underlying future engineering, including the use of computational methods
- prototyping or redesigning platform technologies
- characterizing (in vitro, ex vivo, or in vivo) broadly applicable technologies and prototypes
NIBIB interests include but are not limited to:
- bacteria-laden hydrogels to deliver therapeutics
- co-designed stem cells and scaffolds to grow implantable tissues
