Treena Livingston Arinzeh (born 1970)[1] is an American biomedical engineer and academic.

She is professor of biomedical engineering at Columbia University, joining in 2022. She was formerly a Distinguished Professor in Biomedical Engineering at the New Jersey Institute of Technology in Newark, New Jersey. She is known for her research on adult stem-cell therapy.[2] Arinzeh takes part in the American Chemical Society's Project Seeds program, opening up her lab for high school students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds for summer internships.[3]

Early life and education

Arinzeh was born in 1970[4] and raised in Cherry Hill, New Jersey.[5] She became interested in science by conducting imaginary experiments in the kitchen with her mother, who was a home economics teacher.[6] She was encouraged to pursue a STEM career by her high school physics teacher.[7]

Arinzeh studied Mechanical Engineering at Rutgers University, receiving a B.S. in 1992.[8] She earned a M.S.E. in biomedical engineering from Johns Hopkins University in 1994.[8][9] She continued her graduate studies at the University of Pennsylvania, completing a PhD in Biomedical Engineering in 1999.[6]

Research and career

Arinzeh worked for Baltimore, Maryland-based Osiris Therapeutics as a product development engineer.[7] In 2001, she returned to academia and started working at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) in Newark, New Jersey,[8] where she founded the first Tissue Engineering and Applied Biomaterials Laboratory at NJIT in the fall of 2001.[10] She was at NJIT until 2022 as a Distinguished Professor of Biomedical Engineering.[8] She joined Columbia University as a Professor in Biomedical Engineering in 2022. She has published over 60 journal articles, conference proceedings, and book chapters.[11]

Her current research focuses on systematic studies of the effect of biomaterial properties on stem cell differentiation.[8] She is known for discovering that mixing stem cells with scaffolding[note 1][12] allows regeneration of bone growth and the repair of tissue damage.[13][14]

She discovered that one person's stem cells could be implanted in another person without causing an adverse immune response.[13] In 2018, she received an QED award to work on the recovery time and cost patients experience after bone grafting procedures.[3]

She was nominated by the Governor of Connecticut to the Connecticut Stem Cell Research Advisory Committee.

She is a fellow of the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE)[15] and the Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES).[16]

She is currently a co-PI and the Director of Diversity of the NSF Science and Technology Center on Engineering Mechano-Biology, which is a multi-institutional center with the University of Pennsylvania and Washington University in St. Louis.[16]

In addition, Arinzeh actively tries to increase representation of minority students in biomedical engineering by being a mentor as part of the Project Seeds program supported by the American Chemical Society. Every summer, she invites 40 to 50 teens from under-represented groups to her lab to learn about engineering and her research.[17]

In 2018, Arinzeh was selected to be a Judge for Nature scientific journal's newly created Innovating Science Panel Award.[10]
