Matthew L Becker

The Becker Laboratory for Functional Biomaterials is a multidisciplinary organic chemistry and biomaterials group working at the interface of chemistry, engineering and medicine.   My team is developing families of degradable polymers with highly tunable physical, structural and biological properties.  These materials are being applied to unmet needs in flexible electronics, drug delivery, soft tissue repair, neural, orthopedic and vascular tissue engineering.  We are also actively engaged in additive manufacturing and the development of custom inks that are enabling unique solutions to challenging design paradigms in women's health, trauma surgery and bioprinting of tissues and organoids.
