Gilad Gome

Dr. Gilad Gome is a scientist and designer exploring how technology can help grow living tissues and organs. He works at the intersection of biology, engineering, and artificial intelligence, developing new ways to bioprint and cultivate human organ models. His research focuses on creating 3D-printed structures that guide how cells grow and organize—work that could one day help build replacement tissues for medicine or sustainable meat without animals. Originally from Israel, Gilad completed his Ph.D. at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, where he invented innovative bioreactors and used plant based scaffolds from aloe vera and rice for cultivated meat applications. He is now based at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), leading international collaborations that combine AI, fluidics, and biofabrication to make complex living systems more accessible and scalable.
