Our research efforts are focused on two major themes: (1) elucidating signaling pathways that induce an inflammatory response in responding innate immune cells, and (2) developing in vitro human biomaterial host response models for biomaterials development. We are currently applying these themes to explore mechanisms of host responses to implants and devices used to manage type 1 diabetes, in particular insulin infusion sets.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-965 size-medium aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/fitzpatricklab.engineering.queensu.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IMG_0814-2-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fitzpatricklab.engineering.queensu.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IMG_0814-2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fitzpatricklab.engineering.queensu.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IMG_0814-2-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fitzpatricklab.engineering.queensu.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IMG_0814-2-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fitzpatricklab.engineering.queensu.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IMG_0814-2-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/fitzpatricklab.engineering.queensu.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IMG_0814-2-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/fitzpatricklab.engineering.queensu.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IMG_0814-2-809x607.jpg 809w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Fitzpatrick Lab 2024\/25: (L-R): Skylar, Meghan, Kathryn, Thamali, Fredrick, Yuxi and Lindsay.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cihr-irsc.gc.ca\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"370\" height=\"238\" src=\"https:\/\/fitzpatricklab.engineering.queensu.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/leaf-cihr-colour-en-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-442\" style=\"width:216px;height:139px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fitzpatricklab.engineering.queensu.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/leaf-cihr-colour-en-2.jpg 370w, https:\/\/fitzpatricklab.engineering.queensu.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/leaf-cihr-colour-en-2-300x193.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 370px) 100vw, 370px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"368\" height=\"149\" src=\"https:\/\/fitzpatricklab.engineering.queensu.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/NSERC.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-210\" style=\"width:251px;height:102px\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.innovation.ca\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"344\" src=\"https:\/\/fitzpatricklab.engineering.queensu.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/CFI_RBG-1024x344.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-457\" style=\"width:301px;height:101px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fitzpatricklab.engineering.queensu.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/CFI_RBG-1024x344.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fitzpatricklab.engineering.queensu.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/CFI_RBG-300x101.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fitzpatricklab.engineering.queensu.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/CFI_RBG-768x258.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fitzpatricklab.engineering.queensu.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/CFI_RBG-809x272.jpg 809w, https:\/\/fitzpatricklab.engineering.queensu.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/CFI_RBG.jpg 1291w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ontario.ca\/page\/ministry-training-colleges-universities\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"255\" height=\"197\" src=\"https:\/\/fitzpatricklab.engineering.queensu.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Ontario-ministry-of-training-logo.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-469\" style=\"width:229px;height:177px\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Fitzpatrick Lab specializes in biomaterials and regenerative medicine, with a strong emphasis on biomaterial host responses, inflammation and wound healing, and Type 1 diabetes.
