There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Warren Grayson, PhD
Assistant Professor
Johns Hopkins University
Warren Grayson, PhD is an Assistant Professor in the Johns Hopkins’ Biomedical Engineering and Translational Tissue Engineering Center. He obtained his B.Sc. in Chemical & Process Engineering at The University of the West Indies, his PhD in Biomedical Engineering from Florida State University, and completed his postdoctoral training at Columbia University in New York. His research interests focus on engineering musculoskeletal grafts for craniofacial and orthopaedic tissue regeneration. Dr. Grayson’s previous work on bioreactor design and engineering anatomically shaped bone grafts has received national and international coverage in the New York Times, BBC, and Science Translational Medicine, among others. He has been recognized by the Maryland Science Center as an Outstanding Young Engineer and has received awards from the Orthopaedic Research Society and the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research. Currently, his lab focuses on spatial and temporal regulation of stem cell differentiation in 3D constructs to generate clinically useful engineered grafts.
