Scott Bunch
Dr. Bunch’s research efforts focus on the nano-mechanical properties of a new class of 2D, atomically thin materials such as graphene – single atomic layers of graphite, and their remarkable mechanical properties such as high strength, extreme flexibility, and unprecedented barrier properties. In researching these topics, Dr. Bunch then plans to fabricate and characterize nano-mechanical […]
Christopher Chen
Dr. Christopher Chen is the principal investigator at the Tissue Microfabrication Lab. The lab’s projects include vascular, cardiac, and stem cell biology and engineering. Goals of the lab include building biomimetic tissues as experimental models and to direct tissue remodeling and regeneration through understanding how adhesive, mechanical and biochemical interactions drive cell and tissue function. This year, Dr. Chen’s REU project is Engineering Vascular Beds that […]
Jerry Chen
Dr. Chen’s interest include studying the relationship between local circuits and long-range networks in the mammalian neocortex. By taking an integrative approach through combining large-scale in vivo imaging technology with molecular and genetic tools in the awake-behaving animal, he focuses on both long-range neocortical networks, and long-range cortical circuits during development. Previous REU/RET Projects include: […]
