  3. How to Engineer Human Microbiomes?

    02 Mar 2017 | | Contributor(s):: Mohit Verma

    We are developing tools based on nanotechnology, bioengineering, and analytical chemistry to understand causal relationships between microbiomes and their hosts, and to manipulate microbiomes for desirable outcomes, e.g. to shift patients from unhealthy to healthy states. One of these tools uses...

  6. [Illinois] Cooperation and Construction: From Multicellularity to Eusociality

    28 Apr 2014 | | Contributor(s):: Corina Tarnita

    The evolutionary trajectory of life on earth is one of increasing size and complexity. Yet the standard equations of evolutionary dynamics describe mutation and selection among similar organisms that compete on the same level of organization. I will try to outline a mathematical theory that might...

  8. [Illinois] The Spectacular Nano-Structured Attachment of Tendon to Bone and Our Appalling Attempts to Reconstitute It

    17 Dec 2013 | | Contributor(s):: Guy Genin

    Joining mechanically dissimilar materials is a challenge throughout engineering, with spectacular and often devastating failures. This challenge also underlies one of the worst procedures in all of medical practice, the surgical reattachment of tendon to bone. The body presents a highly effective...

    17 Dec 2013 | | Contributor(s):: Rashid Bashir, Lizzanne DeStefano, Hsiang-Yu Angie Wang, Hao-Ming Hsiao, Jimmy K. Hsia, Laura Arriola Miller

    Deeper understandings of biological systems and advances in nanotechnology have provided new opportunities to make significant progress in mechanobiology, biosensing and dynamic control of engineered systems, with wide range of applications such as cancer research. In order to take advantage of...

  10. [Illinois] Stretchy Electronics That Can Dissolve in Your Body

    27 Sep 2013 | | Contributor(s):: John Rogers

    Biology is soft, curvilinear, and transient; modern silicon technology is rigid, planar, and everlasting. Electronic systems that eliminate this profound mismatch in properties will lead to new types of devices, capable of integrating noninvasively with the body, providing function over some...
