His lab has pioneered the concept of 'herding cells like sheep' through both 'outside-in' and 'inside-out' approaches. The 'outside-in' methodology employs microfluidic and bioelectric devices to control the migration of large cell populations, while the 'inside-out' strategy involves developing cell-mimetic materials that integrate directly into living tissues. This work has significant implications for wound healing, tissue engineering, and organ development. Analysis of Cohen's publication record from 2014-2025 reveals a clear trajectory toward increasingly sophisticated control of cellular systems. His early work established foundational techniques for bioelectric control of cell migration, while recent publications demonstrate advanced applications in 3D biomaterial integration, programmable robotics for tissue manipulation, and multi-dimensional control systems. The research spans multiple disciplines including bioelectricity, biomaterials, tissue engineering, and collective cell behavior, with consistent emphasis on practical applications for medical challenges. As Director of Graduate Studies for Bioengineering at Princeton, Cohen mentors several graduate students including Isaac Breinyn, Hailey Currie, and Grecia Garcia Elizalde. His lab, known as the Cohen Lab, maintains an interdisciplinary approach welcoming researchers from diverse backgrounds to tackle complex problems at the interface of engineering and biology. The lab's work has resulted in numerous high-impact publications in journals such as Nature Communications, Advanced Materials, and Cell Reports. The Cohen Lab is particularly noted for its innovative 'SCHEEPDOG' technology, which uses electrical cues to dynamically herd large-scale cell migration, and more recent work on engineering cellular self-adhesions within 3D printed micro-architectures. These approaches represent significant advances in our ability to control tissue formation and healing processes.
