Meeuws and three other Dutch bioengineers have taken the concept of a greenhouse a step further, growing vegetables,
#says a Harvard bioengineer named David Edwards . And so he has devised a way to convert foods into shell-like containers and films that he calls Wikicells.
The report predicted that this fascinating result will be used by bioengineers to improve engineering design. Well perhaps it will
Acting as a natural bioengineer in prairie landscapes they shaped plant communities transported and recycled nutrients created habitat variability that benefited grassland birds insects
and co-founded by Jay Keasling, a bioengineer at the University of California, Berkeley, the firm has engineered strains of yeast to produce hydrocarbon fuels and other chemicals from sugarcane feedstocks.
But producing biofuels from seaweed has so far proved difficult for bioengineers. Seaweed produces four kinds of sugars laminarin, mannitol, alginate and cellulose.
says Heiner Niemann, a bioengineer at the Institute of Farm animal Genetics in Neustadt, Germany. The excitement surrounding these technological advances is bittersweet, however.
In labs around the world bioengineers have begun to print prototype body parts: heart valves ears artificial bone joints menisci vascular tubes and skin grafts.
In 2000 bioengineer Thomas Boland the self-described grandfather of bioprinting eyed an old Lexmark printer in his lab at Clemson University.
Suddenly bioengineers went from drawing life on a flat canvas to building living sculptures. It was like magic says James Yoo a researcher at the Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine who is developing a portable printer to graft skin directly onto burn victims.
Suddenly bioengineers went from drawing life on a flat canvas to building living sculptures. A printer that can dispense the right ink in other words is only the first step.
In a similar manner bioengineers might one day incorporate sensors into other tissues for example creating a bionic meniscus that can monitor strain.
Like the techniques that made last year's burger bioengineer Johannes Tramper's proposed method starts with a small number of stem cells taken from an animal.
The aspiring plant bioengineer worked with a team of scientists to test how not getting enough water altered the quality of barley grains.
The Rice lab of bioengineer Jane Grande-Allen found through studies of pigs'heart valves that age plays a critical role in the valves'progressive hardening
when to gorice University bioengineers have created a hydrogel that instantly turns from liquid to semisolid at close to body temperature
The hydrogel created in the lab of Rice bioengineer Antonios Mikos is a liquid at room temperature
Results from the diagnostic developed by the lab of Rice bioengineer Rebecca Richards-Kortum are read from a paper strip that resembles a pregnancy test.
