Houston, Texas, United States
Vivek Kumar is an Associate Professor of Biomedical Engineering at the New Jersey Institute of Technology as an with co-appointments in Chemical and Materials Engineering, Biology and Endodontics at the Rutgers School of Dental Medicine. We explore computational peptide materials design, drug discovery, development and delivery, biomaterials and tissue engineering. We have broad interests in inflammation modulation and angiogenesis, especially in understanding the role of small growth factor or cytokine mimics’ ability to signal. Vivek teaches Biomaterials and Biomedical Translation and Entrepreneurship. He strives to encourage research involvement with undergraduates, graduates and post-doctoral scientists @ the KumarLab (kumarlab.njit.edu).
