Author Information

Balaji Sitharaman is an assistant professor of biomedical engineering at Stony Brook University in New York. He received his BS (2000) from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, and his MA and PhD (2005) from Rice University, Houston, Texas, where he also completed his postdoctoral research (2005--2007) as the J. Evan Attwell-Welch Postdoctoral Fellow at the Richard E. Smalley Institute for Nanoscale Science and Technology. Sitharaman's research program is at the interface of nanotechnology, regenerative, and molecular medicine, and synergizes the advancements in each of these fields to tackle problems related to diagnosis/treatment of disease and tissue regeneration. He has authored over 50 publications and has eight patents. He has received several awards for his research, including NIH Director's New Innovator Award from the National Institute of Health, the Idea Award from the Department of Defense, the Carol M. Baldwin Breast Cancer Research Award from the Carol Baldwin Foundation, and the George Kozmetsky Award from the Nanotechnology Foundation of Texas.
