The focus of the Guldberg lab is musculoskeletal tissue regeneration. Our primary research areas include development, pre-clinical evaluation and translation of medical devices and treatments for traumatic musculoskeletal injury and osteoarthritis. We also explore the dependence of musculoskeletal regeneration on local mechanical and immune environments.
Robert Guldberg holds bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degrees in mechanical engineering as well as a master’s degree in bioengineering, all from the University of Michigan. He also completed a postdoctoral fellowship in molecular biology at Michigan before joining the Georgia Institute of Technology in 1996. At Georgia Tech, Guldberg was a professor of mechanical and biomedical engineering, and served as executive director of the Parker H. Petit Institute for Bioengineering and Bioscience.
