Sangeeta N. Bhatia (born 1968) is an American biological engineer and the John J. and Dorothy Wilson Professor at MIT’s Institute for Medical Engineering and Science and Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge, Massachusetts, United States. Bhatia's research investigates applications of micro- and nano-technology for tissue repair and regeneration. She applies ideas from computer technology and engineering to the design of miniaturized biomedical tools for the study and treatment of diseases, in particular liver disease, hepatitis, malaria and cancer.[1]
In 2003, she was named by the MIT Technology Review as one of the top 100 innovators in the world under the age of 35.[2][3]
She was also named a "Scientist to Watch" by The Scientist in 2006.[4]
She has received multiple awards and has been elected to the National Academy of Sciences,[5] the National Academy of Engineering,[6] the National Academy of Medicine,[7] and the National Academy of Inventors.[8]
Bhatia's dissertation became the basis for Microfabrication in tissue engineering and bioartificial organs (1999).[9]
Bhatia co-authored the first undergraduate textbook on tissue engineering, Tissue engineering (2004), written for senior-level and first-year graduate courses with Bernhard Palsson.[10]
She was a co-editor of Microdevices in Biology and Medicine (2009)[11]
and Biosensing: International Research and Development (2005).[12]
