About Us
Welcome to the Center for Engineered Therapeutics – Clinical
Translation of Discoveries from Engineering in Medicine. Our mission is to develop novel biotechnologies
to overcome currently incurable diseases and injuries, with the end goal of achieving life extension and
overcome ageing. We study biology to define important medical questions and use principles of
engineering in medicine to realize rigorous therapeutics and enhance the efficacy and safety of
engineered therapeutics in the clinic.
Our center is located within the rich ecosystem of the Department
of Medicine, Brigham and Women's Hospital,
Harvard Medical School, and the Harvard-MIT Division of HST. We have an interdisciplinary research
environment where engineers, biologists, chemists, physicists, pharmacists, material
scientists, and clinicians work together to solve biological challenges in holistic and creative
approaches. We love exciting and hard problems that will have an impact on patient's lives.
