Abaci Lab is a multidisciplinary research group at Columbia University Irving Medical Center (CUIMC) working at the intersection of dermatology, biomedical engineering, and regenerative medicine. Our research focuses on engineering near-native human skin and vasculature using 3D biofabrication, microfluidics, biomaterials, robotics, and mechanobiology.
Located within the Department of Dermatology, the lab brings together engineers, biologists, dermatologists, and medical students in a highly collaborative environment. We aim to bridge fundamental engineering principles with clinical practice to advance skin and vascular disease modeling, drug testing, and next-generation regenerative therapies.
