Emphasis:

The emphasis is on the development of screening and high-throughput tools and associated computational models to enable biomedical interventions. 

Projects might focus on:

• elucidating important engineering design rules or key foundational principles underlying future engineering, including the use of computational methods
• prototyping or redesigning platform technologies and approaches
• characterizing (in vitro, ex vivo, or in vivo) broadly applicable technologies, prototypes, and lead candidate products

NIBIB interests include but are not limited to: 

• evolution methods for identifying therapeutic protein targets
• organs-on-chips for drug screening
• microfluidic systems for high-throughput screening of extracellular vesicles
