PhD Student
Worcester Polytechnic Institute
Brian Ruliffson is a 5th year Ph.D. candidate at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. His long-term research interests involve development and fabrication of tissue engineered disease models to be used as tools to further the understanding of pathophysiology, tissue development, and aid in drug discovery. Brian's academic training has given him an understanding of biomaterials and tissue engineering. His research experience has covered topics in tissue engineering, specifically with developing techniques to increase the biomimetic properties of tissue engineered scaffolds and models.
