Dr Bram G Sengers MSc, PhD
Associate Professor

Dr Bram G Sengers is an Associate Professor in Bioengineering within Engineering and Physical Sciences at the University of Southampton.
My research focuses on computational modelling of complex biological problems, such as nutrient transfer in the placenta and how to promote bone and cartilage regeneration
Bram is based in Bioengineering within Engineering Sciences. His research is highly multidisciplinary and carried out in close collaboration with experimental groups in the Faculty of Medicine in Southampton.
Career history
Bram received and MSc (Hons) in Mechanical Engineering from Eindhoven University of Technology in the Netherlands in 2000, developing multi-scale finite element models for studying muscle cell damage. He continued in Eindhoven to obtain a PhD on computational modelling for cartilage tissue engineering in 2005. Moving to Southampton, he joined the Bone and Joint Research Group at the Faculty of Medicine as a postdoctoral research fellow, gaining hands-on expertise in tissue culture working on cell ingrowth for bone repair. In 2009 he was appointment lecturer in the Bioengineering Group within the Faculty of Engineering and the Environment in Southampton.
