I design the printers, reactors, and software that turn living cells into structure. Bioprinting hardware, organ-model platforms, and the lab tools that hold it all together.
From deposition toolpaths to ventilated lung models, the work lives where biology, machines, and code meet. Precise instruments that get out of the way.
Custom motion systems, browser-based control over Web Serial, and process design for simultaneous extrusion and photocrosslinking. Hardware and software designed as one instrument, tuned for the demands of soft, living matter.
I work at the intersection of biology, chemistry and engineering, building the printers, reactors, and tools that turn cells into structure.
Based at the Ozbolat Bioprinting Lab at Penn State, my research spans light-based, extrusion, and aspiration-assisted bioprinting, microfluidics, and the lab infrastructure that holds it all together. I build 3D in vitro models, from cancer-on-a-chip systems to ventilated lung platforms, integrating spheroids, organoids, and biomimetic scaffolds.
Much of the work is the connective tissue of a research lab: custom platforms, browser-based printer control over Web Serial, lung-sac bioreactors, and a quiet stack of web tools that keep the lab moving. I like clean interfaces and instruments that disappear into the task.
