Jennifer Elisseeff is an Associate Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Johns Hopkins University with an Adjunct Appointment in Orthopedic Surgery. She received a bachelor's degree with honors in chemistry from Carnegie Mellon and a PhD in biomedical engineering from the Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology. After doctoral research in tissue engineering with Robert Langer, Dr. Elisseeff received a Pharmacology Research Associate Fellowship from the National Institute of General Medicine for research in the Molecular Biology section of the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research. Her biomaterials and tissue engineering laboratory at Johns Hopkins focuses on developing new biomaterials and minimally invasive technologies for tissue repair, stem cells, and musculoskeletal tissue engineering. She has collaborations with plastic surgery, orthopedics, ophthalmology and otolaryngology clinical departments. Dr. Elisseeff has published over 50 articles and book chapters, 6 patents issued and pending, and has given over 60 invited national and international lectures. She serves on a number of NIH and foundation review panels, the science advisory board for Bausch and Lomb and Cellular Bioengineering, Inc, and recently cofounded a company that is developing new materials and therapies for cartilage repair. Dr. Elisseeff has received awards including the Carnegie Mellon Young Alumni Award, Arthritis Investigator Award from the Arthritis Foundation and was named by Technology Review magazine as a top innovator under 35 in 2002 and top 10 technologies to change the future. In 2005, the Urbanite magazine voted Elisseeff one of the up and coming in Baltimore and the Baltimore Business Journal recently named her to Baltimore's 40 under 40.
