David S. Glass, PhD
Arthur P. Grollman Endowed Assistant Professor of Physical and Quantitative Biology
Laufer Center; Department of Biomedical Engineering
David S. Glass studies fundamental questions in biology through synthetic multicellularity — an engineering approach that builds multicellular life from unicellular organisms — to circumvent challenges in studying naturally multicellular organisms.
By constructing these systems from simpler starting points, Glass is laying the groundwork for practical uses of multicellular behavior, including the production of living materials and the design of efficient microbial consortia.
Glass is the Arthur P. Grollman Endowed Assistant Professor of Physical and Quantitative Biology in the Laufer Center and an assistant professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering.
