The Institute for Bioengineering (IBioE) bridges Engineering, Physical Sciences, Biology, and Medicine to develop cutting-edge diagnostic tools and therapeutic biomedical technologies.
Key research areas include:
Synthetic Biology - designing and building biological systems and devices, frequently at the cellular scale. Uses span from medical treatments to environmental solutions.
Tissue Engineering - creating 3D or 2D frameworks or directional signals for cellular growth. Primarily focused on medical applications, including advanced lab-on-chip systems.
Biomedical Modelling and Measurement - analyzing biological materials through computational models and measurements for applications like prosthetic development, vascular failure prediction, and age-related bone studies. We employ experimental techniques, predominantly non-invasive methods such as Raman and CARS spectroscopy.
