SUMMARY:BE Seminar by Dr. Abhishek Jain: Convergence Engineering: Vascular & Cancer Medicine with Organ-Chips on Earth and Space
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dr. Abhishek Jain\nDepartment of Biomedical Engineering\nCollege of Engineering\nDepartment of Medical Physiology\nSchool of Medicine\nTexas A&M University. \nTitle: Convergence Engineering: Vascular & Cancer Medicine with Organ-Chips on Earth and Space\nAbstract: The perpetual rise in cost of healthcare is one of the biggest socioeconomic problems of our globe. Part of the challenge is that productivity of drug companies is declining\, and relatively fewer drugs are reaching market. This is partly so because drug discovery largely rests on the results from animal studies\, which can turn into negative outcomes in human clinical trials. The Jain lab creates microphysiological systems and convergent technologies that predict human physiology and complement in vivo studies. By establishing and leveraging extensive collaborations across academia\, medical centers\, and space industry\, they have made contributions in advancing the fundamental knowledge and drug discovery of ageing\, thrombosis\, ovarian cancer\, and lymphedema. Here\, a few examples of their approach will be presented.\nDr. Abhishek Jain is an Associate Professor of Biomedical Engineering and holds the Barbara and Ralph Cox’53 faculty fellow position at Texas A&M University. He is a founder of several next generation organ-on-chips and companion technologies of complex transport systems and AI-based analytics. His lab particularly specializes in engineering and commercializing patient-specific organ-chip platforms of cardiovascular and cancer medicine. They are recognized as leaders of integrating blood and lymphatic microcirculation in engineered cell systems.
