Eric Darling joined the Brown faculty in 2009. He received a Bachelor of Science in Engineering from Harvey Mudd College, a PhD in Bioengineering from Rice University, and completed postdoctoral training at Duke University. Prof.

Many of our research faculty participate in collaborative research across universities and companies.

Several of our investigators have recently published review papers

Hayley recently published a first author paper in Science Robotics. This work was summarized in a news feature by the Wyss Institute.

Anita Shukla joined the School of Engineering faculty in 2013. She was an NIH Ruth Kirschstein postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Bioengineering at Rice University, where she explored the influence of biomimetic geometries on stem cell differentiation.

A new approach to calibrating the pioneering BrainGate brain-computer interface allowed three clinical trial participants with tetraplegia to gain control of a computer cursor after just one simple calibration step.

Braden Fleming’s group recently published two studies related to ACL injury and repair. In a systematic review of the literature, they evaluated the association between oral contraceptive pill (OCP) use and ACL injuries.

The Darling lab published two research articles in December demonstrating novel molecular techniques to probe cells. In a study published in Biotechniques, they broadened the utility of their established technique of the FITSAR (formaldehyde-fixed intracellular target-sorted antigen retrieval) method.

Dr. Gregory Jay is an attending physician at Rhode Island Hospital. He also serves as Director of Research in the Department of Emergency Medicine at Brown University. He received his MD and PhD from the Medical Scientist Training Program at the State University of New York at Stony Brook in 1990.

BME seniors finished the semester by presenting their capstone design projects at the Biomedical Engineering Capstone Design Symposium.

Patrick Duffy of Everence and Dr. Edith Mathiowitz have patented the technology to include DNA in tattoos.

Ben Wilks, a PhD candidate in Biomedical Engineering, was awarded a Student Scientist Award for the 2017 TERMIS-AM Conference.

Edith Mathiowitz joined the Brown faculty in 1991. She has extensive experience in the development of polymers for use in drug and gene delivery systems and tissue engineering applications.

Vivian Fong's first position after graduation was as a law student at the University of Pennsylvania. Her current position is as an in-house attorney for Walt Disney Company.

Lego minifigures, like engineers, are disproportionately
 male. But Sangeeta Bhatia ’90 has her own, custom-made in 2015 by Maia Weinstock ’99. It’s a fitting tribute to the engineer, physician, biotech entrepreneur, and mom who takes tiny pieces and puts them together in unexpected ways.

Thursday evening, the Biomedical Engineering Capstone Design course (ENGN 0930L/1930L: Biomedical Engineering Design and Innovation) paired up with Design + Health, a collaboration between Brown Alpert Medical School and RISD students, in the first annual Design + Health speed dating event.

Jonghwan Lee is an Assistant Professor in the School of Engineering and a member of the faculty of the Brown Institute for Brain Science at Brown University.

Our collaborative research environment often leads to intra-CBME joint publications.
