Being connected is our motto at the Department of Bioengineering at Northeastern University. We strive to be connected to the needs of our students and society through innovative research and impactful experiential education.
Research pursued today in bioengineering may take time to manifest in the form of breakthrough therapies, similar to early work on mRNA immunogenicity and its chemical modifications that ultimately laid the groundwork for COVID-19 vaccines. This potential for profound impact is what motivates us every day. From developing advanced 3D-printed vascular systems for tissue engineering to creating devices that enhance the lives of the visually impaired, we are committed to pushing the boundaries of what bioengineering can achieve.
