Postdoctoral Scholar
Cancer Early Detection Advanced Research Center, Oregon Health & Science University
Portland, Oregon, United States
Dr. Kevin Schilling received a Bachelor’s of Science in Chemical Engineering with a concentration in Biomedical Engineering (BME) in 2012 from the University of Wyoming in Laramie, WY. During his undergraduate career, he was awarded a McNair Scholarship. After receiving his degree, he worked in industry at an analytical chemistry company and then an oil and gas company in their R&D department. Following this experience, Kevin entered the BME Ph.D. program at the University of Rochester in Rochester, NY. During his Ph.D., he combined optical-based sensors, biomaterials, and advanced imaging techniques to characterize the oxygen environment and determine cellular metabolism during murine cranial bone defect healing. Kevin received many awards and accolades during his Ph.D. including being awarded the Randy Rosier Travel award from the Center for Musculoskeletal Research as well as an RO1 diversity supplement. Currently, Kevin is a Postdoctoral Scholar in Prof. Carolyn Schutt Ibsen’s lab in Biomedical Engineering and the Cancer Early Detection Advanced Research Center (CEDAR) at Oregon Health and Science University in Portland, OR. His current work focuses on utilizing advanced imaging techniques and optical-based sensors to characterize the microenvironment during early oncogenesis utilizing 3D spheroid models.
