Dr. Alisha Lilly Sieminski joined Olin after being a Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award post-doctoral fellow in the Biological Engineering Division at MIT. She holds a Ph.D. in Bioengineering from the University of Pennsylvania and a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from MIT. Dr. Sieminski's research interests revolve around how cells interact with and perceive their immediate surroundings — with a focus on cell mechanics and cell-biomaterial interactions. Since coming to Olin, Dr. Sieminski has enjoyed developing new Bioengineering courses focused on transport in biological systems, tissue engineering, cell mechanics, and biological thermodynamics.
