Dr. Daniel Abebayehu is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Virginia where his lab focuses on using biomaterials and high-dimensional approaches to study immuno-stromal axes to determine avenues for intervention that prevent fibrosis and promote repair. His academic and research training have provided him with a strong background in regenerative medicine, molecular immunology, and fibroblast biology. The Abebayehu lab’s specific areas of interest are in pulmonary injury and repair, modulating responses to biomaterials, and identifying novel diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for endometriosis. His research program is focused on investigating immune cell and fibroblast crosstalk in the context of fibrosis and tissue repair and the interdisciplinary nature of this work allows the lab to sit at the intersection of different fields. That position allows the research group to see scientific questions and problems in a new way and pose innovative solutions.
