Updated On February 11, 2021
Molly Stevens, Professor of Biomedical Materials and Regenerative Medicine in the Department of Materials and the Department of Bioengineering, at Imperial College London, received FEBS EMBO Women in Science Award 2021.
The award is an acknowledgement for her innovative bioengineering approach that addresses problems in regenerative medicine and biosensing. Her research results are being translated into the development of point-of-care tests for tumours and viruses such as HIV and Ebola virus. These biosensors are designed in a way to allow rapid diagnoses anywhere in the world. Stevens works closely with biomaterials and researches how materials can be used in the body to improve health and minimise suffering.
