Mobed-Miremadi, Maryam

Dr. Maryam Mobed-Miremadi is a Lecturer at Santa Clara University since 2013. She is a chemical engineer (B Eng, M Eng, McGill University Canada) by training with an emphasis on transport and microencapsulation technologies for bioengineering applications. She graduated from McGill University with a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering having conducted her research at the Artificial Cells and Organs Research Centre. Following graduate school, she spent 12 years in the biomedical industry in various R&D and manufacturing positions, specifically in Diagnostics (Abaxis), Genomics (Agilent Technologies, Wafergen), and Biomedical Devices (Boston Scientific) in R&D and  Manufacturing. Prior to joining SCU, she served as the Kordestani Chair in Bioengineering from 2009-2012.
