The computational and theoretical bioengineering group works to explain, model, and provide the means to manipulate medically-related biological systems. Investigations range from biomechanics to protein-protein interactions, to stem cell differentiation and immune system therapies. General areas of interest include bone and cartilage mechanics, stress effects on stem cell differentiation, sequence and structure properties of glycosaminoglycans, nanoelectromechanical transduction in cochlear, outer-hair cell membranes, characterization of molecular imaging markers, structural biology, evolution and immune system therapies, design principles of biochemical circuits and drug-based inhibition of aberrant protein interactions.
Researchers in the Department of Bioengineering involved in this field include:
