Elise Morgan is the Maysarah K. Sukkar Professor of Engineering Design and Innovation and the Director of the Center for Multiscale and Translational Mechanobiology at Boston University. She has faculty appointments in the Department of Mechanical Engineering (primary), the Department of Biomedical Engineering, and the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery.
Dr. Morgan received her Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of California Berkeley and was a postdoctoral fellow in the Departments of Mechanical Engineering and Surgery at Stanford University.
Dr. Morgan’s research laboratory focuses on the mechanical behavior and mechanobiology of skeletal tissues at multiple length scales. Her lab uses experimental and computational methods to explore how the deformation and failure behavior of tissues depend on the tissue microstructure; and conversely, how the differentiation and adaptation of tissues and cells are modulated by their mechanical microenvironment.
Dr. Morgan has received research funding from the NIH, the NSF, and multiple industry sources and private foundations. From 2016-2018, she was the Chair of the Skeletal Biology, Structure, and Regeneration study section of the NIH Center for Scientific Review. She is the recipient of several research and teaching awards, including the 2013 Kappa Delta Young Investigator Award from the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, and is the co-founder of a STEM outreach program, Summer Pathways, for high-school girls. Dr. Morgan currently serves as the Associate Dean for Research and Faculty Development in the College of Engineering. She is also an Associate Editor for the Journal of Biomechanics, is an member of the editorial board of Bone, and is a member of the College of Fellows of the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering.
Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility
I am strongly committed to expanding access, opportunity, equity and inclusion for all individuals in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). In my classroom teaching, academic advising, research supervision, mentoring of trainees and early career faculty, and outreach activities, I seek to shift the culture of academia and STEM workforces towards embracing mutual differences and celebrating individuals' authentic selves and unique contributions.
As the Associate Dean for Research and Faculty Development in the College of Engineering, I implemented the first college-wide policy on faculty mentoring and created a career development panels, working closely with individual departments and the Dean to ensure early career faculty receive effective sponsorship, mentorship, and other resources to foster inclusion and thriving. I have also worked closely with the Assistant Dean for Outreach and Diversity in ENG, with the BU-wide office Advance, Recruit, Retain, Organize Women in STEM (ARROWS), and on committees within my professional societies to advance DEIA in the faculty, staff, and student bodies. I led the first climate survey for PhD students in my home department (mechanical engineering). I am also a co-founder of Summer Pathways, a STEM residential outreach program for high school girls in the Boston area (https://www.bu.edu/mysummer/academics/summer-pathways-in-science-and-engineering/). Over my career, I have provided one-on-one mentoring to nearly 100 trainees (postdoc, graduate students, undergraduate students, and high school students) and early career faculty.
