David Diaz, Marissa Puzan, Dan Ventre, and undergraduate Emily Ashbolt will be presenting their work at the BMES annual conference in Minneapolis in October! Congratulations guys!  

Research in the Advanced Biomaterials for Neuroengineering Laboratory (ABNEL) focuses on neural engineering and the interface between neurons and surrounding tissues. Specifically ABNEL develops novel and transformative devices, biomaterials, and biophysical-based therapies for this aims. Current work centers on the gut, heart, and central/peripheral nervous system.
