In the Lab

The Fattahi laboratory focuses on developing advanced human tissue models, including organ-on-a-chip systems and vascularized organoid arrays, to investigate how high-risk environmental exposures impact human health. By integrating bioengineering, stem cell biology, and multi-omics profiling, the team aims to recapitulate essential physiological functions in vitro to study tissue injury, repair, and disease progression. Fattahi’s research spans multiple organ systems, with particular emphasis on respiratory biology, vascular function, reproductive toxicity, and developmental biology, in the context of inhaled toxicants and endocrine-disrupting chemicals.
