Craig A. Simmons

Craig runs this large bioengineering lab and makes sure everyone knows what they are doing and can keep on doing it. His lab investigates how biomechanical forces on cells lead to regeneration, repair, and disease of cardiovascular tissues. Our dynamic team of engineers, biomedical scientists, and physicists tackle applied biomedical problems in the areas of heart valve mechanobiology and disease, stem cell-based tissue regeneration, and microfluidic physiological systems.
