Research    and   Publications

For a description of projects currently available, please see the Lab Members tab.

The Stoppel Lab focuses on topics related to:
  • Biomaterial design and development using natural biopolymers
  • Investigation and leveraging of biodiversity to identify and harness the potential utility of non-commercialized biopolymers from insects for applications in healthcare and medicine
  • Quantification and optimization of transport and diffusion within 3D biomaterial systems for predicting and controlling in vivo performance
  • Muscle regeneration and methods for generating engineered tissues
  • Designing materials to alter wound healing and disease progression
  • Iterative designs through in vitro and in vivo​ investigations to generate innovative material platforms to address clinical needs in striated muscle repair
