Eric Appel
Associate Professor of Materials Science and Engineering, Senior Fellow at the Woods Institute for the Environment and Associate Professor, by courtesy, of Pediatrics (Endocrinology) and of Bioengineering
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe underlying theme of the Appel Lab at Stanford University integrates concepts and approaches from supramolecular chemistry, natural/synthetic materials, and biology. We aim to develop supramolecular biomaterials that exploit a diverse design toolbox and take advantage of the beautiful synergism between physical properties, aesthetics, and low energy consumption typical of natural systems. Our vision is to use these materials to solve fundamental biological questions and to engineer advanced healthcare solutions.

Bella Archibald
Ph.D. Student in Bioengineering, admitted Autumn 2021
BioBella works in Professor Jennifer Brophy’s lab, and her research focuses on developing new tools to precisely engineer plants and plant root development. She hopes to create plants that are more drought tolerant and climate resilient, as well as plants with optimized root structures for enhanced soil carbon sequestration.
Outside of the lab, Bella loves skiing, hiking, and dancing, and her favorite flower is the Arrowleaf Balsamroot.
