About

Sherin Abdelrahman is an emerging biomedical engineer and biofabrication researcher whose work sits at the intersection of 3D bioprinting, biomaterials science, and disease modeling. Her research focuses on developing sophisticated three-dimensional tissue constructs that faithfully replicate complex biological environments, with particular emphasis on neurological and hematological conditions. Abdelrahman's most influential contribution, garnering 39 citations, demonstrated the successful fabrication of functional dopaminergic neuronal models for Parkinson's disease research using ultrashort self-assembling peptide scaffolds — a technically demanding achievement given the inherent fragility of neuronal cells. She has further advanced the field through hybrid bioprinting approaches combining material extrusion and vat polymerization techniques (20 citations), expanding the toolkit available to biofabrication researchers worldwide. Her work extends beyond neuroscience into cancer biology, where she engineered a three-dimensional bone marrow niche model for acute myeloid leukemia using robotic multicellular bioprinting systems (15 citations), offering new avenues for understanding drug resistance. Most recently, she has applied high-throughput robotic bioprinting platforms to investigate pharmacological effects on embryonic neural development. Collectively, Abdelrahman's research represents meaningful progress toward physiologically relevant preclinical models that could accelerate therapeutic discovery across multiple disease areas.
