Greetings, and Welcome!
This blog is the outcome of all the excellent critique, and sometimes nasty comments I have received from my students as part of the evaluations of my Biomaterials class at Stony Brook University. I taught undergraduate and graduate-level Biomaterials courses for ten years (between 2008 and 2018). For the first few years, it was a one-semester graduate-level class. I then started offering it over two semesters for junior and senior undergraduates. Since then, I have replaced my academic hat with an entrepreneurial cap. However, I intend to continue to blog about All Things Biomaterials!
