Congrats to Aijun Wang, #UCDavisBMEGG #UCDavis Professor, on being named a 2026 #BMES Fellow. Students and researchers, come meet BMEGG at UC Davis BME booth 1111 at BMES in Orlando, Oct. 21-24. Learn about new BMEGG opportunities + jobs: buff.ly/CyMqjkq
Wonderful orientation week for our new #UCDavisBMEGG graduate students. And great participation from #BME graduate-group faculty. Glad to see many labs recruiting new students this year.
Incredibly grateful and excited to lead this new ARPA-H project with my excellent collaborators. #synbio #UCDavisBME #ARPA-H

Had a great brunch with lab members in Sacramento. Happy lab members, happy PI. :) #UCDavis #UCDavisBME #synbio
Wearable rig made in the Tech Foundry at #AggieSquare + #UCDavis #BMEGG engineers = neuron measurement in real time! buff.ly/ihC1xBX #Neuroengineering #UCDavis
Congrats to #Ofelya (leftmost in the photo) for the successful PhD thesis defense. Wonderful to work with these talented young researchers. Even better when they support each other, and bake their own cake for the celebration! #UCDavisBMEGG #synbio
How to measure airborne nanoplastics? UC Davis BMEGG faculty, Randy Carney, will tackle the challenge using Raman spectroscopy and cell models. If successful, the method can change health-risk studies! buff.ly/vtirqTo #UCDavisBME #Nanoplastics
Two UC Davis BMEGG students, Joseph Morrison and Nikita Mohapatra, received new grants to apply biomedical engineering in precision medicine and health equity. Glad to see graduate training tied to patient care. buff.ly/Z85IxS4

Excited to serve as the new Chair of BMEGG at UC Davis. Beginning with three connections: students to the right mentors; training to fast-moving science and industry; and research to the society. Grateful for the opportunity to listen and serve. #UCDavisBME
We are hiring postdoctoral scholars. Control, preserve, and engineer synthetic mammalian cells using engineered biomaterials. Multi-disciplinary, multi-institution, high-visibility. Start date: Aug or Sep 2026. Apply here: buff.ly/UdQHDZ0 #synbio #UCDavisBME
Productive trip to #SynBYSS #2026 at #Barcelona. Presented our latest work on synthetic cells as therapeutics. Thanks to @Tae Seok Moon and @Marc Guell for chairing the conference. And great meeting nice colleagues in #synbio. #UCDavisBME
It feels great celebrating student success! Congrats to Tanner and Ofelya who are graduating. #synbio #UCDavisBME #phd
Huge congratulations to Dr. @TannerHenson. Also grateful for the collaborations with #AijunWang and #RandyCarney. We are looking for new postdocs and a research project manager to join our team in #SyntheticBiology, #MammalianCell, #therapy, and #biomaterials, at #UCDavisBME
We just had the Annual Symposium of the #UCDavisBME graduate group. Great attendance, good energy, helpful panel discussion. Thanks to Prof Peter Yingxiao Wang for sharing his wisdom and latest work. #synbio #UCDavisBME
Super productive with multiple students presenting at different conferences. Congrats on the great work! And congrats to Alessandra for being awarded the best poster in the "Chemical Biology in the Bay Area Day". #synbio #UCDavisBME
Gave a keynote at the ECI Nanotech in Medicine conference, chaired by #Juliane and #Rohan. Nice to learn about frontier work in #nanomedicine, #extracellular vesicles, and cellular therapeutics. Great location and people too. #UCDavis #BME #synbio
