Ali Khademhosseini "Biomaterials, Soft Robotics, Terasaki Institute"

It was a pleasure to have Prof.Ali Khademhosseini, one of the pioneers of the Bioengineering field. Prof.Ali’s journey from Harvard, UCLA to Terasaki Institute is truly inspiring. What does Terasaki institute do to bring a product to the real world? The design challenges of biomaterials, organ on a chip, and soft robotics. I hope you enjoy listening!
