International Centre for Environmental Management:
Promoting Climate Resilient Rural Infrastructure in the Northern Mountain Provinces of Vietnam
Donor / Partner: Asian Development Bank (ADB) | Duration: 2013-2016 | Location: The Northern Mountain Provinces of Vietnam
About: The objective of the project in northern Vietnam to demonstrate effective bio-engineered solutions which, where possible, provide ‘win-win’ outcomes for resilience of rural infrastructure to climate risk and opportunities for community livelihood enhancement.
The project focuses on rural irrigation, slope stability for roads, river-bank protection, and flood protection works. Lessons learned from the project works will provide the basis for capacity building activities with local community members, contractors and government staff at local, provincial and national levels. The extension of this work is to make recommendations for the broader adoption of bio-engineered approaches as an effective solution to manage climate risk in Vietnam. The project will also raise awareness of climate risks and vulnerabilities in local communities and empower them with the capability to manage risk through practical, cost effective solutions which can be implemented with local resources.

Congratulations to Sean Madanipour (FE13) and Nasseo for winning 1st Prize in the 6th Annual UCSD Entrepreneur Challenge Business Plan Competition!
Nasseo, Inc. is a medtech startup developing novel technologies that treat dental and orthopedic implant failures. Nasseo’s first product, RESTORETM, is a dental implant that utilizes a proprietary surface modification technology to provide a 9x greater implant-to-bone bond. The technology was invented in the lab of Professor Sungho Jin, Director of Materials Science and Engineering in the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department at UCSD.
Nasseo is led by Garrett Cale Smith, a PhD Candidate in Bioengineering at UCSD and Stanford Biodesign Fellow Alumni. The team includes Kayvon Pourmirzaie, a UCSD Bioengineering and USD School of Law graduate, who has previously co-founded a web-based startup and has medtech IP law experience; Gary Johnston, a UCSD Materials Science PhD student; Handan Yildiran, a UCSD Bioengineering MS student; and Sean Madanipour, a Rady School of Management MBA student.

Wireless sensors that monitor your heart even though they do not actually touch your skin are at the center of UC San Diego electrical engineering PhD student Yu Mike Chi’s dissertation. This technology – and the plan for commercializing it – earned Chi and his Cognionics team the top spot in the UC San Diego Entrepreneurship Challenge. The prize includes $25K in cash for the startup and $15K in legal services. Chi is developing these technologies under the guidance of professor Gert Cauwenberghs from the Department of Bioengineering at the UC San Diego Jacobs School of Engineering.

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.
