Major Research Thrusts for Proposed IGERT on Integrated Stem Cell Science and Engineering (2008 – 2013)

We have defined three Interdisciplinary Research Thrusts (IRT's).

IRT 1 - Synthetic Tools: Environmental Manipulation of Stem Cell Behaviors

IRT 2 - Integrative Biology: Molecular & Genetic Engineering of Stem Cells

IRT 3 - Systems & Applications: Stem Cell Based Tissue Engineering

 

Major Research Thrusts for IGERT on Integratively Engineered Biointerfaces (2003 – 2008)

We have defined three Interdisciplinary Research Thrusts (IRT's).

IRT 1 - Engineered cellular and intracellular systems that elucidate/effect biointerfacial phenomena

IRT 2 - Cells/biomolecules on engineered materials

IRT 3 - Systems or device level integration of biomaterials and bioprocesses (e.g. biosensors; bioactuators; bioreactors, lab on a chip. etc.)

  • Congratulations!
    IGERT Fellows Aaron Carlson and Mohamed Sadik took 1st and 3rd place (respectively) in the Poster Presentations at the 3rd Annual NJ Stem Cell Symposium held Thursday, September 24, 2009. Aaron Carlson's poster was titled “3-D Electrospun Polymer Scaffolds Promote Human Embryonic Stem Cell Self-Renewal and Controlled Organization". Mohamed presented “Electroporation-Mediated Molecular Delivery”. Jonathan Davilla took 2nd place with “Identification of Biologically Functional microRNAs in Human ESCs by Ago2 Immunoprecipitation and Sequencing”. The keynote address was delivered by Hakim Djaballah, PhD of the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.

  • Congratulations to Professor Ki-Bum Lee, Stem Cell IGERT Faculty in Chemistry and Chemical Biology, who is the recipient of the NIH Director’s New Innovator award, 2009.
    The NIH Director's New Innovator Award program is designed specifically to support unusually creative early stage investigators with highly innovative research ideas at an early stage of their career.
