Jacob Walker


Senior Co-op Coordinator & Assistant Director, 
Cooperative Education

Lei Wang


Assistant Professor, 
jointly appointed in Bioengineering & Biology

Wang laboratory integrates synthetic biology, tissue engineering, and microfluidics to investigate the design principles underlying cell state transitions, establish human physiological and pathological models using hiPSCs, and develop next-generation therapeutics for previously intractable diseases.

Ning Wang


Professor, 
Bioengineering

Cellular and molecular mechanobiology, mechanomedicine, and mechanohealth; cancer cell biology and mechanics; stem cell biology and mechanics; mechanomemory and mechanoresilience, mechanobiotechnologies and their applications to cells, tissues, and organisms

Meni Wanunu


Professor, 
jointly appointed in Physics & Bioengineering

Our group investigates biomolecules at the single-molecule level. We develop nanopore-based and other nanotechnology-based methods for probing the structure and dynamic behavior of biomolecules. We employ optical waveguides and single-molecule enzymatic approaches for RNA sequencing, and utilize engineered nanopore sensors for applications in single-molecule proteomics. We are experimentalists, but we also use advanced computational tools to perform big data analysis.

Jing-Ke Weng
