Engineering Tissues: Where we have been and where we are going

Christopher S. Chen completed his Bachelor’s in Biochemistry from Harvard University in 1990. After spending a year abroad, he joined Massachusetts Institute of Technology and completed his Master’s in Mechanical Engineering in 1993. He then joined the M.D.-Ph.D. program run by the Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology (HST) and received a Ph.D. in 1997 and an M.D. in 1999. Chen is the William Fairfield Warren Distinguished Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Boston University and member of the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University in Boston.
Chen has published over 250 research papers. His research investigates the application of engineering principles to control tissue assembly, repair and regeneration, and incorporates areas including nanotechnology, tissue engineering, engineered cellular micro-environments, micro-electromechanical systems and micro-fabrication technologies.
