Jennifer Hartt Elisseeff (

Orthopedic Surgery.[2] Elisseeff's research is in the fields of regenerative medicine
and immunoengineering.

She was elected as a member of the

NIH Director's Pioneer Award.[3] Her research has been cited over 23,000 times and she has an h-index over 75.[4]

Education and Academia

Elisseeff attended

Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology under the mentorship of Robert Langer. Later she was a Fellow at the National Institute of General Medical Sciences, Pharmacology Research Associate Program, where she worked in the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research
.

She was originally hired by

Wilmer Eye Institute
in 2010, Elisseeff is now Morton Goldberg Professor in the JHU Department of Biomedical Engineering and Director of her own lab. While at Hopkins, Elisseeff has pursued clinical development and translation of biomedical research.

In 2018, she was elected to the National Academy of Engineering for "development and commercial translation of injectable biomaterials for regenerative therapies."[6] That same year, she was also elected to the National Academy of Medicine,[7]

Business career

In 2004, Elisseeff cofounded Cartilix, Inc., which was acquired by

Bausch and Lomb, Kythera Biopharmaceutical, and Cellular Bioengineering Inc.[9] Elisseeff has also served on the board of the State of Maryland's Technology Development Corporation (TEDCO).[10]

Research

Elisseeff's current research group resides within the Johns Hopkins University Translational Tissue Engineering Center, undertaking translational research related to tissue engineering, ophthalmology and immunology.[11] Beginning with the publication of a Science article in 2016, much of her group's research has pivoted to identifying the response of the immune system to implanted biomaterials and how biomaterial properties affect wound healing response.[12]
