Dan Huh

Dan Huh is an Associate Professor in the Department of Bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania. He is a pioneer of “organ-on-a-chip” technology, and his research group at Penn focuses on developing microengineered models of human physiological systems for a wide variety of biomedical applications. Dr. Huh’s work has been recognized by several honors and awards, including the Bernard Langer Distinguished Lectureship, Lush Prize, the McPherson Distinguished Lectureship, CRI Technology Impact Award, John J. Ryan Medal, Design of the Year Award and Best Product of the Year Award from...Read more

Brian Timko

Brian Timko graduated from Lehigh University with B.S. degrees in Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, and from Harvard University with a Ph.D. in Chemistry. He completed his graduate studies in the laboratory of Professor Charles Lieber at Harvard, where he studied semiconductor nanowires and how they could be stably interfaced with living cells and tissue. He completed postdoctoral studies with Professor Robert Langer at MIT and Professor Daniel Kohane at Boston Children's Hospital. During that time, Timko studied nanocomposite materials for cardiac tissue engineering and remotely-...Read more

Bozhi Tian

Bozhi Tian is a leader in the emerging field of bioelectronics—merging semiconductor technology and living tissue.

He has created “intelligent” artificially grown tissue, such as synthetic blood vessels that can monitor the pH of liquid flowing through, as well as tiny wires to modulate brain signals and “scales” and “bones” that could be integrated into implants, among others.

His many honors include the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers, the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation Research Fellowship, the National Institutes of Health Director’s New...Read more
