About the Speaker
Dr. Gregory Hudalla received a B.S. in chemical engineering from the Illinois Institute of Technology in 2004, a M.S. in biomedical engineering from the University of Wisconsin in 2006, and a Ph.D. in biomedical engineering from the University of Wisconsin in 2010. Dr. Hudalla was a post-doctoral fellow at the University of Chicago and Northwestern University from 2010-2013 through support from an NIH National Research Service Award. Dr. Hudalla is currently an associate professor in the J. Crayton Pruitt Family Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Florida, where he has been since 2013. Dr. Hudalla’s research program seeks to understand and employ the physical phenomenon of self-assembly as a means to localize and amplify the activity of biotherapeutics. Dr. Hudalla has authored more than 45 publications, is co-editor of the book “Mimicking the Extracellular Matrix: The Intersection of Matrix Biology and Biomaterials”, and holds 3 U.S. patents, with another 10 currently pending. Dr. Hudalla has received the Cellular and Molecular Bioengineering Young Innovator award, the Journal of Materials Chemistry B, Biomaterials Science and Molecular Systems Design & Engineering Emerging Investigator awards, a National Science Foundation RAISE award, the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering Trailblazer award, the National Science Foundation CAREER award, the University of Wisconsin Alumni Early Career Achievement award, the Cade Prize for Invention and Creativity, the National Institute of General Medical Sciences Maximizing Investigators’ Research Award, a Pruitt Family Endowed Faculty fellowship from the UF Department of Biomedical Engineering, and was named a UF Term Professor from 2018-2021.
