DESCRIPTION:“Bioelectronics for closed-loop disease management”\n\nSpea
 ker: Siddharth Krishnan\, Assistant Professor\, Electrical Engineering\, S
 tanford University\n\nAbstract: Recent advances in engineering science hav
 e led to new classes of medical devices with emergent mechanical\, electri
 cal\, and thermal properties that offer new opportunities for interfacing 
 with living tissue. I will discuss conceptual advances in microfabrication
 \, device physics\, power transfer and microscale transport phenomena that
  enable novel biosensors and cell delivery systems\, with an emphasis on t
 wo recent examples from my work: (i) Soft\, skin-interfacing wearable flow
  sensors for novel neurosurgical diagnostics\; (ii) Battery-free bioelectr
 onic systems for “living drug factories” that combine inorganic device
  elements with living cells for long-term\, functional cures for a range o
 f diseases with an emphasis on oxygenation strategies and immune-isolation
 . I will illustrate the utility of the latter platform with examples of sp
 ecific cell and disease models. Finally\, I will present a vision for how 
 these types of technologies could lead to both fundamental scientific disc
 overies and next generation bioelectronic cell therapy platforms for the t
 reatment and sensing of chronic disease.\n\nBio: Siddharth Krishnan is an 
 Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering at Stanford University. Prev
 iously\, he was a K99/R00 Research Scientist in the groups of Prof. Daniel
  Anderson and Prof. Robert Langer at the Koch Institute for Integrative Ca
 ncer Research at MIT. He received BS and MS degrees in Mechanical Engineer
 ing from Washington University in St. Louis\, and his PhD in Materials Sci
 ence and Engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign f
 rom Prof. John Roger’s group. His work has focused on the development of
  bioelectronic devices for sensing and therapeutics. He has published over
  20 scientific papers\, is an inventor several granted and pending patents
  and co-founded a company\, Rhaeos Inc.\, focused on translating his gradu
 ate work on wireless wearable diagnostic tools for neurological surgery. H
 is work has been recognized through several awards\, including a postdocto
 ral fellowship from the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation\, the 2019 I
 llinois Innovation Prize\, a graduate student medal from the Materials Res
 earch Society and being named on MIT Technology Review’s Global Innovato
 rs Under 35 list and on Forbes 30 under 30 list in science.
