Anjelica Gonzalez serves as the Raymond John Wean Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Yale University. Her research focuses on the development of biomimetic materials and the investigation of their applications in immunology, inflammation, and fibrosis. Committed to training the next generation of scientists, she emphasizes interdisciplinary approaches and a global perspective in problem-solving. The Gonzalez Lab employs a multidisciplinary approach that integrates organic chemistry, molecular biology, mathematics, and computational modeling to develop engineered scaffolds aimed at dissecting immunological processes and chemo-mechanics. Her research has yielded significant advancements in treating a range of diseases, including vascular inflammation, stroke, fibrosis, and sepsis. Notably, her translational research has led to the creation of innovative technologies designed for underserved populations, such as the PremieBreathe device, a low-cost neonatal respiratory aid developed with support from the USAID and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which has been deployed in low-infrastructure settings in Ethiopia.
Administered via the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences (GSAS). GRE General is optional for PhD.
