Jason Caffrey, an engineering alumnus, helped develop 3D-printed models that allow physicians to practice before a surgery.
Researchers led by UC San Diego built a device that sorts and separates cancer cells from the same tumor based on how “sticky” they are. They found that less sticky cells migrate and invade other tissues more than their stickier counterparts, and have genes that make tumor recurrence more likely.

A team of researchers has developed a system that uses ultrasound to remotely activate genetic processes inside CAR-T cells so that they can target and kill cancer cells. This work addresses one of the major challenges of of CAR-based immunotherapy: non-specific targeting of CAR-T cells against nonmalignant tissues. Researchers say this work could ultimately lead to more precise and efficient CAR-T cell therapies that can better target malignant over benign tissues.

E-nable Hands.
This unique partnership allows Shriners patients to build their own mechanical hands.
Rice University bioengineering students, staff and faculty teamed up with Marvel Universe LIVE! and Houston’s Shriners Hospitals for Children this week to offer both a free mechanical hand and a once-in-a-lifetime experience to the families of eight Shriners patients who lack all or part of one hand.

Working as a team, volunteers from Rice and the global online community e-NABLE joined performers from the Marvel Universe LIVE! show to help the patients and their families build mechanical hands out of plastic parts that were made on 3-D printers at Rice.
“E-NABLE is a wonderful and inspiring online group of about 3,600 volunteers that I found out about through the 3-D maker community,” said Jordan Miller, assistant professor of bioengineering. “E-NABLE community volunteers create open-source designs for mechanical hand assistive devices that can be freely downloaded and 3-D-printed for less than $50 in materials.”
A typical prosthetic hand can cost $4,000 or more, and young patients typically outgrow several of them during childhood. -

Biologically Inspired Engineering: From Human Organs-on-Chips to Programmable Nanotherapeutics
Dr. Donald Ingber
Professor of Bioengineering, Harvard John. A. Paulson School of Engineering & Applied Sciences
Abstract
The Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University that I lead has pioneered a new model for innovation, trans-disciplinary collaboration and technology translation. I will highlight engineering of “Organs-on-Chips” that recapitulate organ-level structure and functions as a way to replace animal testing for drug development, mechanistic discovery, and personalized medicine; nanotherapeutics that target to vascular occlusion sites like artificial platelets; anticoagulant surface coatings for medicine devices inspired by a plant; a ‘biospleen’ device that cleanses blood of pathogens and toxins in septic patients; and self-assembling DNA-based nanorobots that can be programmed to travel to cancer sites and kill tumor cells. This new bioinspired technology wave represents a major paradigm shift in medicine, and the novel organizational structure of the Institute offers an entirely new way to translate discoveries into breakthrough products in the academic setting.

Coir Green ™(Geotextiles/Coir netting) – have been known to reduce soil erosion and is used for bioengineering and slope stabilization applications globally due to the mechanical strength necessary to hold soil together. It is been proven that Geotextiles last for approximately 3 - 5 years depending on the weight, and by the time the product degrades, it converts itself it to humus, which enriches the soil. The following Geotextiles are produced by Coir Green.
Some benefits in using Coir Green Geotextiles (Coir netting):
•Stream/River bank protection
•Shoreline stabilization
•Storm water channels
•Slope stabilization in railway cutting and embankments
•Separation application in rural roads, railways, parking and storage areas and Storm shuttering
•Reinforcement of rural unpaved roads, temporary walls Providing sub base layer in road pavement
•Filtration in road drains and land reclamation
