Gabriella LindbergView profile
Assistant Professor
Dr. Gabriella Lindberg is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Bioengineering at the University of Oregon's Knight Campus, leading the Lindberg Lab. Her research focuses on developing bioinks, hydrogels, and bioresins to engineer musculoskeletal tissues that replicate native biological environments. She holds a PhD from the University of Otago and previously served as a Research Fellow in the Christchurch Regenerative Medicine and Tissue Engineering (CReaTE) Group. Dr. Lindberg has secured significant grants, including a New Zealand Health Research Council Emerging Researcher Grant, and has won multiple awards such as the ISBF Young Investigator Award (2019) and CMDT/MedTech CoRE awards. Her work spans collaborative projects with institutions in New Zealand, Germany, Netherlands, and Australia. Current lab members include researchers like Vinni Thoms (Lab Manager) and Tim Wheeler (Postdoctoral Scholar). The lab is recruiting for postdoctoral and graduate positions in immunomodulation for osteoarthritis and bone marrow tissue engineering. Key research platforms include biofabrication, biomaterials, and organoid development. Dr. Lindberg’s research emphasizes clinical relevance, with projects addressing patient variability and disease progression modeling. Her team explores oxygen control in 3D-printed constructs and integrates inflammatory biology with biomaterials science. The lab’s long-term goals include advancing 3D bioassembly for musculoskeletal repair and hematological disease treatments. Notable contributions include work on vitreous humor as a biomaterial, automated 3D bioassembly, and the development of photoclickable gelatin bioinks. She has mentored numerous students, including PhD candidates Axel Norberg and Bram Soliman, and supervised master’s and undergraduate researchers in tissue engineering and biofabrication techniques.
