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).
Bryan Schellberg Successfully Proposes
Bryan Schellberg, graduate student of both Drs. Abigail and Ryan Koppes, successfully defended his research proposal this past May. This defense earned him the title of "PhD Candidate"! We all look forward to watching Bryan's work unfold as he fulfills his proposed...
