The group has a longstanding interest in the study of biopolymers (structural proteins, polysaccharides), particularly the use of biological approaches to the synthesis and modification of these material systems. Genetic engineering and metabolic engineering strategies are employed to control chemistry and thus function, along with selective chemic...
The group takes a multi-fold approach to the challenges of tissue regeneration. Traditional biochemical factors are utilized to direct stem cell and tissue outcomes in selective (temporal, regional, interfacial) approaches. In addition, a major focus is on biophysical factors (membrane potential Vmem, external electric fields, mechanical forces) on...
The two categories above (tissue regeneration, biopolymers) are exploited to develop human tissue models for relevance to the study of disease mechanisms as well as for therapeutic screening. These systems are designed to account for complex cell mixtures, vascular needs and relevant cell types to recapitulate structure and functional features of t...
Silk-based drug delivery systems are studied to exploit the all-water processing, the ability to regulate beta sheet (crystalline) content for control of lifetime in vivo (days to years), to control medical device format (e.g., coating, fibers, tablets, gels, etc.), to deliver small or large molecules that are hydrophilic or hydrophobic, and to exp...
