About
Jerusalem Nerayo is a biomedical engineer whose work sits at the intersection of microfabrication and implantable device design. Her primary research focuses on developing advanced surface patterning techniques—specifically microneedle arrays—to enhance the functionality of nonplanar, three-dimensional medical implants. Her most cited work, “Microneedle Patterning of 3D Nonplanar Surfaces on Implantable Medical Devices Using Soft Lithography” (2019, 13 citations), introduces a novel method for applying micropatterns to curved surfaces, a challenge that has historically limited the integration of microstructures into real-world devices. By adapting soft lithography for nonplanar geometries, Nerayo’s contribution enables the modification of implant surfaces without altering their bulk properties—opening new possibilities for localized drug delivery and improved tissue-device integration. Though early in her career, her work has already been recognized for its translational potential, bridging fundamental microfabrication with practical biomedical applications. Her research continues to push the boundaries of how surface engineering can improve the safety and efficacy of next-generation implantable medical technologies.
