Bioengineering is where engineering meets medicine. Bioengineers use traditional engineering techniques to find innovative solutions to real world biological and medical problems. It?s a vastly diverse subject with many different facets in areas such as tissue engineering, biomaterials and medical devices. This book summarizes recent progress of newly developed bioengineering technology, such as low-energy ion beam bioengineering (IBBE).
Stephen obtained his PhD from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte in 2013 where his graduate research focused on cancer immunology and the tumor microenvironment. He received postdoctoral training in regenerative and translational medicine, specifically gastrointestinal tissue engineering, at the Wake Forest Institute of Regenerative Medicine. Currently, Stephen is an instructor for anatomy and physiology and biology at Forsyth Technical Community College.
