Dr. Basel Khader

Visiting Assistant Professor
BE, Istanbul University,

Basel A. Khader, PhD, P.Eng., is a biomaterials scientist and engineer specializing in hydrogel systems, photo-polymerization, microfluidics, and tissue engineering. He earned his PhD in Mechanical and Industrial Engineering with a focus on biomaterials from Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly Ryerson University), followed by postdoctoral research at the University of Michigan Medical School and TMU/St. Michael’s Hospital (iBEST). His work advances regenerative medicine through biomaterials synthesis, microfabrication, and applications in bone regeneration, drug delivery, and organoid systems. Having taught biomedical engineering courses, Dr. Khader joined the AUS Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering in 2025.
