A new handheld 3D printer can deposit sheets of skin to cover large burn wounds – and its “bio ink” can accelerate the healing process.
Researchers from IBBME developed a method to improve the transplantation success rate of artificial islets.
Most Engineered Nanoparticles Enter Tumours Through Cells, Not Between them, U of T Researchers Find
University of Toronto researchers have discovered that an active rather than passive process dictates which nanoparticles enter solid tumours, upending decades of thinking in the field of cancer nanomedicine and pointing toward more effective nanotherapies.
Dr. Hai-Ling Margaret Cheng is developing cell and tissue scaffold tracking contrast agents to visualize how they are moving in the body.
Professors and alumnus elected Fellows of the Engineering Institute of Canada
By raising lab coats to the rafters, U of T biomedical engineering lab celebrates its student MVPs
Sarah Sarabadani, Michael Li, and Marija Cotic worked in different Biomedical Engineering labs at the University of Toronto. Now they have all converged at Klick Health, a rapidly growing healthcare marketing and commercialization agency, headquartered in Toronto. We sat down to talk about their day-to-day activities and how they were able to leverage their skills to transition into non-traditional healthcare roles.
Co-founded in 2013 by Liz Munro (IBBME0T9), Perimeter Medical Imaging’s mission is to provide better tools for cancer surgeons. They specialize in building real-time, high resolution imaging devices which provide sub-surface images of tissue that can be used by surgeons for intra-operative tissue assessment.
Imagine being dropped off at the edge of an urban city with crisscrossing streets and no navigational instructions. The roads often run into dead-ends and are full of pot-holes, the network reception is non-existent, and the buildings aren’t numbered. If you want to get from the edge of the city into the downtown core, the only logical way is to map out your own route.
