About
Mohamed N. Rahaman is a prominent materials scientist and biomedical engineer whose research has profoundly advanced the field of bioactive glass scaffolds for bone repair and tissue regeneration. His work centers on designing, fabricating, and evaluating three-dimensional porous scaffolds that promote bone healing and vascularization, with particular emphasis on silicate and borate bioactive glass systems. Rahaman has been instrumental in establishing robotic deposition — commonly known as robocasting — as a precise and reproducible technique for manufacturing bioactive glass scaffolds with tailored microstructures. His highly cited 2013 study on the mechanical properties of 13-93 bioactive glass scaffolds (219 citations) demonstrated that robotically deposited constructs could achieve structural integrity suitable for load-bearing bone repair. Complementing this, his 2012 direct-write assembly work (108 citations) expanded fabrication strategies across multiple glass compositions. A distinctive contribution is his exploration of copper-doped bioactive glass scaffolds, showing enhanced angiogenesis and bone regeneration in vivo — a critical step toward clinically viable implants. His development of gelatin-bioactive glass hybrid scaffolds further reflects his interdisciplinary approach bridging inorganic materials science with biological functionality. With over 500 cumulative citations across key publications, Rahaman's research continues to meaningfully shape regenerative medicine and orthopedic biomaterials.
