Rate My Professor Cathy Ye

Ye's research specializes in tissue engineering and stem cell technologies, with particular emphasis on in vitro cancer models, biomaterials, and bioreactors designed for tissue engineering and stem cell expansion. She leads multidisciplinary projects, including the bioengineering development of advanced human models of pain and humanoid bioreactors for tendon tissue engineering, in collaboration with national and international partners. Her scholarly contributions include key publications such as 'Fibrin scaffolds for angiogenesis in soft tissue models: a systematic review,' 'Proteome constrained metabolic modeling of Sus scrofa muscle stem cells for cultured meat production,' 'Predictive modeling of CHO cell culture using enzyme-constrained genome-scale metabolic models coupled with empirical regression,' 'Small extracellular vesicles from human bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells enhance migration and regulate reparative gene expression in dermal fibroblasts,' and 'Engineering a long-lasting microvasculature in vitro model for traumatic injury research.' Ye serves as an Associate Editor for Bioactive Materials and has delivered public lectures, including webinars on engineering careers and seminars on regenerative medicine from an engineer's perspective. Her work has practical impact through spin-outs like Ivy Farm Technologies and contributions to the Institute of Biomedical Engineering.
