Biography
Eric Darling is Associate Professor of Medical Science, Engineering, and Orthopaedics and is faculty in the Department of Molecular Pharmacology, Physiology, and Biotechnology. He received a B.S. in Engineering from Harvey Mudd College, a Ph.D. in Bioengineering from Rice University, and post-doctoral training at Duke University. As a member of the Center for Biomedical Engineering, the goal of Professor Darling's research is to understand the relationship between the biological function of cells and tissues and their micro/nano-scale mechanical properties, with special focus on stem cells. Professor Darling's long-term objective is to use quantitative assessment of the mechanical and biological characteristics of heterogeneous cell populations to improve tissue regeneration and cell-based therapies.
