Andrew Putnam is the Robert C. Leland, Jr. Donna D. Leland Professor of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Michigan, where he leads the Putnam Lab. His research focuses on fundamental and applied aspects of cell and tissue engineering, particularly the physical and chemical properties of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and their influence on the development of tissue structures. The lab works on designing 'instructive materials' for various applications in regenerative medicine. Current projects involve working with uncommitted progenitor cells and commitment to cells across diverse tissues, with a particular emphasis on developing new blood vessels for regenerative medicine applications. His work integrates concepts from biomaterials, molecular and cellular biomechanics, and tissue engineering, contributing significantly to the field of regenerative medicine.
