Client Info

Clients work in NAU Bioengineering Devices Lab in neurovascular devices and vein network models

Dr. Becker leads the Bioengineering Devices Lab (BDL) at NAU. His current research interests are in biomedical devices, biomaterials, and vascular blood flow. Specifically, treatment of strokes caused by aneurysms and blot clots. An aneurysm is an abnormal enlargement or pouch that forms from a weakened vessel segment in the brain. Blood clots can come from aneurysms or the heart and block flow in vessels of the brain. Current research focuses on novel vessel treatment devices, such as liquid embolics and flow diverters for aneurysms and aspiration catheters for clot removal.
