About
Carl M. Schoellhammer is a biomedical engineer whose research lies at the intersection of drug delivery, micro-robotics, and tissue engineering. His most cited work introduces a robotically handled whole-tissue culture system designed to screen oral drug formulations, a breakthrough that bridges the gap between in vitro assays and costly animal models. By automating the culture of intact tissue, Schoellhammer’s system enables high-throughput, physiologically relevant testing of drug absorption and formulation performance, accelerating preclinical development. This innovation, published in 2020 and garnering 52 citations, exemplifies his commitment to creating scalable, human-relevant tools for pharmaceutical research. Beyond this, his broader contributions include pioneering work on ultrasound-enhanced transdermal drug delivery and microneedle technologies, which have been recognized with multiple awards, including the prestigious Forbes 30 Under 30 in Science. Schoellhammer’s research not only advances fundamental understanding of transport phenomena in biological tissues but also directly impacts the design of more effective, patient-friendly therapies. His work continues to inspire students and researchers seeking to merge engineering precision with biological complexity.
