Biological Sciences and Bioengineering (BSB) Lab

The Biological Sciences and Bioengineering (BSB) Laboratory is a living lab, where faculty train students and pursue cutting-edge interdisciplinary research. The integration of engineering and biology offers tremendous opportunities for solving important problems in health sciences and medicine and enables a broad range of applications in diagnostics, sensing, therapeutics, and tissue engineering.

The research in the BSB Lab will focus on four major themes led by esteemed professors from the College of Engineering and Computing Sciences and the College of Arts and Sciences:

  • Point of care disease diagnostics and structural biomaterials for bone regeneration, led by, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering.
  • Bacteriophages and viruses for their therapeutic effect to treat bacterial infections, led by, assistant professor of biological and chemical sciences.
  • Synthetic biology approaches for understanding how nervous systems encode behaviors, led by, assistant professor of biological and chemical sciences.
  • Fate analysis of emerging contaminants such as PFAS and 1,4-dioxane in water and soil, led by聽, assistant professor and chair of the Department of Environmental Technology and Sustainability.
