Bio Jagannath (Jagan) Padmanabhan, PhD is a postdoctoral research fellow in Dr. Geoffrey Gurtner’s laboratory in the Department of Surgery at Stanford University. He is a bioengineer by training (PhD, Yale University 2016) and his research interests lie at the interface of bioengineering and surgery, exploring the role of mechanotransduction in foreign body reaction and fibrosis. He uses single cell transcriptomics, bioinformatics, bioengineering tools, small animal surgical models and clinical specimens to interrogate fibrotic events at the biomaterial-tissue interface and during wound healing.
Jagan is also interested in science education and science communication. He recently taught a course on “Nanobiomaterials” for high school students at the Stanford Summer Institute (June-July 2016). He also runs a blog for scientists, seekers and skeptics at www.sciencers.org.
