Assistant Professor
Oregon Health & Science University
Dr. Carolyn Schutt Ibsen is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Oregon Health and Science University. She holds a joint appointment with the Cancer Early Detection Advanced Research Center in the Knight Cancer Institute. In 2023, she was recognized with the Rising Star Junior Faculty Award in Cellular and Molecular Bioengineering from the Biomedical Engineering Society.
Dr. Schutt Ibsen's research group is focused on developing energy-responsive biomaterial platforms for tumor modeling and regenerative medicine. Her group has a particular interest in engineering stimuli-responsive materials that can be controlled remotely and noninvasively using ultrasound. Her lab’s efforts include developing dynamic tissue-engineered platforms to model cancer progression in response to oncogenic stimuli as well as engineering responsive biofabricated systems to guide tissue repair and regeneration. Prior to OHSU, Dr. Schutt Ibsen completed a Whitaker International Postdoctoral Fellowship at Imperial College London, working with biomaterials for engineered tissue and regenerative medicine in the group of Prof. Molly Stevens. She holds a Ph.D. in Bioengineering from the University of California, San Diego where she was a Siebel Scholar, NSF Graduate Research Fellow and recipient of the Shunichi Usami Memorial Dissertation Award. Her graduate work focused on the development of energy-responsive nanomaterials for cancer therapy and diagnostics using light, ultrasound, and their combination.
