KHADEMHOSSEINI, Alireza – Departments of Radiology, Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, University of California, Los Angeles
For global leadership in tissue engineering and biomaterials research. Particularly for pioneering contributions to the development and understanding of micro- and nanoengineered hydrogels for making artificial tissues, surgical materials, and disease models. His contributions have formed the foundations of fields such as organs-on-a-chip systems and three-dimensional bioprinting. In addition, his engineered materials are transformational as surgical sealants and embolic agents.
