Sundararajan V. Madihally
Associate Professor

TEACHING INTERESTS:

Sundar teaches Introduction to Biomedical Engineering (CHE 4293/5293) as well as undergraduate course in Introduction to Chemical Engineering (CHE2033).  He is the faculty advisor for the OSU student chapter of American Institute of Chemical Engineers and co-advisor OSU Indian Student Association.  He is actively involved in exploring novel teaching methodologies.

RESEARCH INTERESTS:  
Molecular Bioengineering

We are interested in understanding the mechanisms at the molecular level that trigger cellular processes in stem cell differentiation and proliferation, in regenerating tissues, and traumatic conditions. We use in vitro tissue culture techniques and in vivo animal models to (1) study injury effects and (2) develop novel strategies to enhance tissue regeneration.
