Maryam Tilton
Assistant Professor
Department Research Areas:
Advanced Design and Manufacturing
Biomechanical and Biomedicine Engineering
Dr. Maryam Tilton joined the Walker Department of Mechanical Engineering as an Assistant Professor in Fall 2023. Before this, she was an NIH-T32 Musculoskeletal Research Postdoctoral Fellow in the Biomaterials and Regenerative Medicine Laboratory at Mayo Clinic. She completed her PhD in Mechanical Engineering (2016-2020) at Pennsylvania State University. During her graduate studies, she received several awards, including the Rising Stars in ME (2019, Stanford) and the DAAD RISE Professional Award (2019, Germany). Dr. Tilton’s research program focuses on the development of functional tissue-mimicking structures using visible light-induced 3D bioprinting techniques. Her team harnesses these 3D (bio)printed bio-functionalized structures for both minimally invasive tissue regeneration applications and mechanobiological studies, holding promise for advancing treatment strategies for age-related tissue dysfunctions.
