Welcome to ABNEL!
Research in the Advanced Biosystems 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. Current work centers on the gut, heart, and central/peripheral nervous systems.
Please feel free to visit our sister lab Laboratory for Neuromodulation and Neuromuscular Repair (LNNR).
Minhal, Caroline, and Beth win Creative Endeavors Awards!
Congratulations to our amazing undergrads Minhal Ahmed, Caroline Ghio, and Beth Dibiase for each winning funding for their projects through Northeastern’s Undergraduate Research and Creative Endeavors Award! This award provides them with ample funding to both support their research and present their results. Congrats guys!!
