Josh Joins Big Brothers Big Sisters
Josh Scaralia was accepted into the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Massachusetts Bay, serving as a mentor for a local child.
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.
