Adrian Ranga's Biography

Adrian Ranga, Senior Scientist, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne

Adrian Ranga is a Post-Doctoral Fellow in the Laboratory of Stem Cell Bioengineering at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland. He received his PhD at EPFL in 2013 with Prof.Matthias Lutolf, and his Masters degree from McGill University, Canada. Adrian Ranga’s research focuses on developing innovative bioengineering technologies and deploying them to investigate basic and translational questions in stem cell biology and tissue engineering. His work focuses primarily on the high throughput generation of combinatorial hydrogel arrays, which are used to investigate the role of extrinsic cues in specifying stem cell fate. Adrian Ranga has been supported by grants from the National Science and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC), as well as by a BD Biosciences Research Grant.
