Presented information on engineering education and our graduate program to a Virginia General Assembly subcommittee considering creation of K-12 level standards of learning and other programs in Virginia public schools. In 2006 my department was one of two university departments designated as a University Exemplary Department for developing and sustaining innovative and effective departmental approaches to introductory courses at the graduate and undergraduate levels. These awards are highly competitive and result in a $20,000 award to the department. As a group the faculty decided to spend the award on new office furniture as we moved into newly renovated space that I spent approximately two years working with the Provost and the Dean to obtain for the department. I am currently on the team that is providing design information for a new engineering building. Worked with college development office personnel to gain gifts for laboratory renovation, facility maintenance, support for academic programs, and overall department support from both alumni and industry. Have obtained gifts in the form of cash, stock, hardware, and shop equipment. Overall management of departmental budget of approximately $2M. In 11 years as department head, was never over budget, even though considerable resources were directed toward development of new courses, supporting the success of new faculty, creation of spaces for hands-on learning, and development of a PhD program.

Research Activities and Interests Research activities of the Cell-Based Therapies and Tissue Engineering Laboratory are centered on the application of stem cell based therapies for the treatment of heart failure, from the perspective of a biomedical engineer/cardiovascular physiologist with a focus on translational research. A primary research focus is the study of functional gap junction mediated cell-to-cell communication in cardiac tissue under normal and pathophysiologic conditions. We continue to explore the role of cell-to-cell communication in adult stem cells and progenitor cells on engraftment, differentiation and function as applied to cell transplantation therapies for cardiovascular disease. We are exploring mechanisms that underlie and contribute to the differentiation of adult-derived stem cells into cardiomyocytes. We have developed both an in situ model of a heterogeneous cardiac myocyte/stem cell co-culture and in-vivo small animal heart model. We have investigated stem cell labeling techniques for long term in vivo tracking. We continue to explore stem cell delivery techniques and methods to augment stem cell retention and engraftment after transplantation, including the use of protein therapy. We continue to develop measurement techniques using confocal fluorescence microscopy and micro-electrode array data acquisition systems. These systems stimulate, image and acquire high temporal and spatial measurements of intracellular ionic and transmembrane voltage changes and electrical signal propagation in the cell culture and tissue preparations. We are developing protocols using a cell-culture bioreactor system to explore the effects of mechanical stimulation on cardiac tissue and human stem cells grown in 3D bioengineered constructs.

Loren Limberis

Major Research Interests The major theme of my research is to develop biohybrid devices using a biobased engineering approach. Highly complex and sophisticated systems found in nature may be developed into tools that could potentially be integrated into useful devices. One example is to incorporate biological motor proteins, such as kinesin, into microdevices. Kinesin motor proteins are remarkable nanoscale motors that are involved with intracellular transport. The primary motivation for developing kinesin-based devices is their potential use in creating highly functional devices at the micro- and nanoscale. Some examples include active transport and separation systems, biosensors, microgenerators, and micropumps. Another example is to integrate plant photosensory protein systems into a foundational platform for nanobiotechnology applications featuring photo-switchable control mechanisms. Plants optimize and regulate their growth and development based on light intensity, wavelength, and photoperiod. Some photosensory mechanisms are based on reversible, light-mediated control of photoreceptor protein activity and interacting factor proteins. The photocontrollable, photoreversible switching mechanisms found in plants is the focal point of this stream research. Using light signals to control the on/off binding mechanism of a protein complex is an intriguing concept with a wide range of potential applications in biotechnology and nanobiological devices. Another major focus of my research is engineering education, particularly laboratory oriented design experiences for undergraduate students in electrical engineering and bioprocess engineering courses. I’m also interested in non-traditional approaches to teaching in the classroom using how people learn (HPL) theory in developing Legacy Cycle modules and case studies for bioprocess engineering courses. These active learning activities engage the students in the classroom and laboratory with measureable outcome achievement. I’m interested in ways to develop and further refine these activities through iteration and help the students achieve the skills to transfer their new knowledge and apply it effectively in new and different situations.
