Devina Jaiswal

Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering

Devina Jaiswal, Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering, received her M.S. in Bioengineering from Pennsylvania State University where she worked on bone tissue engineering. Her primary research focused on cellular mechanosensing and analyzing the effect of surface geometry on downstream signaling pathways. She received her Ph.D. from the University of Connecticut with a concentration in biomedical micro-electromechanical devices used for cellular manipulation and characterization. She has published research articles in various peer-reviewed journals and regularly serves as a reviewer for these journals. She is also a reviewer for Department of Defense’s CDMRP grants. Her research interests include tissue engineering, mechanosensing, and drug delivery. Other than research, she is devoted to best teaching practices for undergraduate and graduate education. She was named Kern Engineering Entrepreneurship Network (KEEN) Fellow for 2020-21. She strongly believes in inculcating entrepreneurial mindset in undergraduate courses by development of experiential learning modules.
