Kedar began his research in regenerative medicine as an undergraduate at Johns Hopkins University, where he studied Biomedical Engineering and Computer Science. Under Dr. Hai-Quan Mao at the Institute for NanoBioTechnology, he developed injectable nanofiber-hydrogel composites for soft tissue regeneration, contributing to preclinical studies on macrophage-driven healing, adipose tissue formation, and radiation-induced fibrosis. He explored disease modeling during a summer at Columbia University’s Cellular Engineering Lab, where he built a blood-joint barrier model to study the effects of diabetes on cartilage degradation. Kedar’s research interests include regenerative medicine, therapeutic delivery, and the development of clinically translatable systems for tissue repair.
Outside the lab, he enjoys bouldering, tennis, skiing, photography, watching and playing football (soccer), and unwinding with video games when there's time.
