Stories by Antonios G. Mikos

DAVID J. MOONEY and ANTONIOS G. MIKOS have collaborated for eight years. Mooney has been on the faculty at the University of Michigan since 1994, where he is associate professor of biologic and materials sciences and of chemical engineering. He studies how cells respond to external biochemical and mechanical signals and designs and synthesizes polymer scaffolds used in tissue engineering. Mikos is associate professor of bioengineering and of chemical engineering at Rice University. Mikos's research focuses on the synthesis, processing and evaluation of new biomaterials for tissue engineering, including those useful for scaffolds, and on nonviral vectors for gene therapy.
