Area of Concentration

The faculty of Bioengineering is engaged in a broad range of research areas.  In addition, the Department has defined 15 focus areas of research:

• Molecular Engineering
• Cellular Engineering
• Tissue Engineering
• Drug and Gene Delivery
• Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Cell and Tissue Mechanics
• Orthopaedic Bioengineering
• Injury Biomechanics
• Biomaterials
• Computational Neuroscience
• Experimental Neuroscience
• Medical Imaging and Imaging Instrumentation
• Imaging Theory and Analysis
• Cellular and Molecular Imaging
• Theoretical and Computational Bioengineering
• Bioinformatics

Each represents current interests of several of the Graduate Group Faculty. As such, they offer students the opportunity to work with an interdisciplinary team of researchers.
