Michael Garton's (Garton Lab) life as a professional mountaineer was changed by a fall from Europe's tallest rock face. A year in hospital made him realize he wanted to make a positive impact through science. Read his #PeopleofMedicinebyDesign profile: mbd.utoronto.ca/news/people-of…


Meet Lucy Ma (Engineering Science (2T2 + PEY), Biomedical Systems), our Canadian Space Health Undergraduate Research Awardee! She is working with the Garton Lab at University of Toronto this summer on a controlled gene circuit for cellular radiation protection using tardigrade genes. Ad Astra!🚀


A new academic-industry partnership between Garton Lab and Myo Palate Biomedical Engineering @ University of Toronto aims to lower cultivated meat costs. We're excited and honoured to support this impactful work! news.engineering.utoronto.ca/new-academic-i…

Very proud to count myself among those joining the PRiME - Precision Medicine Initiative at UofT community as part of the 2022 PRiME Fellowship!! Thankful for your support @FPRoth & Garton Lab!




Michael Garton (Garton Lab Biomedical Engineering @ University of Toronto) is using stem cells & synthetic biology to develop therapeutic tissues that can not only replace damaged tissues but also enhance them to be better than nature: mbd.utoronto.ca/news/merging-s…
