 April 24, 2013

We are proud to announce that Dr. Akhilesh Gaharwar's work on "Hyperbranched Polyester Hydrogels with Controlled Drug Release and Cell Adhesion Properties" was selected for Merit Award at 2013 SFB Annual Meeting (Boston). The research project was performed in our lab jointly by Drs. Akhilesh Gaharwar, Hongbin Zhang and Alpesh Patel. Congratulations to all of them!

 

Khademhosseini Selected as a Member of an NIH study section
 April 09, 2013

We are happy to announce that Prof. Khademhosseini was recently selected to serve as a standing member of the Bioengineering, Technology and Surgical Sciences (BTSS) study section of the Center for Scientific Review (CRS) of NIH. Members are selected based on their demonstration of competence and achievement in their field as evidenced by the quality of research accomplishments, publications in scientific journals and other notable achievements. Dr. Khademhosseini will serve a four year term (2013-2017).

 

Dr. Khademhosseini awarded the Young Investigator Award of the Controlled Release Society
 March 22, 2013

We are proud to announce that Dr. Khademhosseini has been awarded the Young Investigator Award of the Controlled Release Society. This award recognizes the outstanding contribution of a member of the society (<40 years of age) in the area of controlled release and drug delivery. The award will be presented to Dr. Khademhosseini at the annual CRS meeting in Hawaii (July 2013).

 


The Khademhosseini Lab uses a multi-disciplinary approach, to develop microscale and nanoscale technologies with the ultimate goal of generating tissue-engineered organs and controlling cell behavior.
