Highlights include the first robust drosophila embryo and zebrafish embryo cryopreservation, the first scalable pancreatic islet cryopreservation, and the first cryopreservation of a whole rat kidney for up to 100 days.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EBIO\u0026nbsp;\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nBischof works in the area of thermal bioengineering with a focus on biopreservation, thermal therapy, and nanomedicine. His awards include the ASME Van Mow Medal and Fellowships in societies including Cryobiology, JSPS, ASME, AIMBE and IAMBE. \u0026nbsp;He has served as the President of the Society for Cryobiology and Chair of the Bioengineering Division of the ASME. \u0026nbsp;Bischof obtained a B.S. in Bioengineering from U.C. Berkeley (UCB) in 1987, an M.S. from UCB and U.C. San Francisco in 1989, and a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from UCB in 1992. After a Post-doctoral Fellowship at Harvard in the Center for Engineering in Medicine, he joined the faculty of the University of Minnesota in 1993. Bischof is a Distinguished McKnight University Professor in the Departments of Mechanical and Biomedical Engineering, and the Medtronic-Bakken Endowed Chair and Director of the Institute for Engineering in Medicine, and Director of the new NSF Engineering Research Center ATP-Bio.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Cem\u003EThe Bioengineering Seminar Series is co-hosted by the Institute for Bioengineering and Bioscience and the Wallace H.
