Claudia Fischbach-Teschl is the Stanley Bryer 1946 Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Cornell University and serves as the Director of Cornell’s Physical Sciences Oncology Center (PSOC). She received her Ph.D. in Pharmaceutical Technology from the University of Regensburg, Germany, after which she conducted postdoctoral research at Harvard University in the Division of Engineering and Applied Sciences. Her research focuses on utilizing engineering tools to better understand the interactions within the tumor microenvironment and their roles in cancer development, progression, and therapy resistance. Specifically, her lab is dedicated to studying cellular interactions with the extracellular matrix, highlighting their critical significance in cancer pathogenesis. Fischbach-Teschl's work employs advanced strategies from tissue engineering, microfabrication, and bioengineering to create model systems that replicate patient conditions, facilitating insights into the biological and physical principles that influence tumor dynamics and responses to treatment.
