Congrats to Stacey Finley for her recent promotion to Full Professor of BME at USC - 1st Black woman to do so at USC Engineering! So well-deserved! [Only the fourth Black Woman to reach the full rank in Biomedical Engineering nationally] #Trailblazer #RepresentationMatters

Happy late #MicrobeMonday/#MicroMartes! We're starting with a very beginner-friendly 🧶 microbe - Cryptococcus neoformans. Empezamos con un microbio muy sencillo - Cryptococcus neoformans. Pattern on/Patrón in Ravelry: ravelry.com/patterns/libra… Fun microbe 🦠 facts below 👇🏽 1/n

As the semester and year come to a close, I’d like to reflect on the rollercoaster that was 2023 and share a few highlights. ✅ Earned the NSF GRF ✅ Successfully passed my pre-quals ✅ Presented at my first conference during my PhD ✅ Submitted my first manuscript for review

Join us! We are hiring! Looking for faculty in the area of Biomaterials and in the area of Metallurgy!

Mentors are oftentimes our greatest champions. They see your potential well before you see it for yourself, offer insightful advice, and root for you when you’re not even in the room. I’m very thankful for my network of mentors and celebrate them for #NationalMentoringMonth

I’m thrilled to share that I am in this year’s #40GatorsUnder40 class! I’m excited to be one of three UF Engineering alums in the bunch. It’s truly an honor to represent Gator engineering our amazing UF Alumni in this way! #GoGators

Cheers for Dr. Christine Schmidt's election to the National Academy of Engineering (National Academy of Engineering), one of the most esteemed honors in the field! The achievement highlights Dr. Schmidt's dedication to innovation & profound impact on biomaterials & tissue engineering. 🎉Christine E. Schmidt

Celebrating #BlackHistoryMonth w/ Ph.D. student Kevin R. Smith in the Jamal S. Lewis lab. His groundbreaking research involves optimizing a regulatory vaccine to combat autoimmune diseases, aiming to alleviate the burden on patients facing systemic immunosuppression. Kevin Smith

Since grad school, I dreamt of applying our engineered models to study tropical parasites. I am SO excited that U.S. National Science Foundation is enabling us to pursue that while ALSO exploring the things I love most: engaging with bilingual communities, global learning, and crocheted art! #ProudPI 1/n

Delighted to share that our work on vomocytosis will continue thanks to the splendid support of this NIGMS Established Investigator MIRA.

Yesterday, I had the opportunity to share some of the work from my thesis at the Annual Biomaterials Day Symposium and took home the award for ‘Best Oral Presentation’ for my session. Special thanks to Society for Biomaterials at UF for the opportunity and the UF swag!

I am honored to be named AAAS fellow, "one of the most distinct honors in the scientific community." A testament to the brilliant students and postdocs with whom I have had the privilege of collaborating with Michigan Chemical Engineering. che.engin.umich.edu/2024/04/18/lol…

Dr. Jamal Lewis receives $2M NIH NIGMS grant to study Cryptococcal Vomocytosis, uncovering how Cryptococcus neoformans evades immune cells. His multidisciplinary approach could revolutionize treatment for immune & neurological conditions. Jamal S. Lewis ➡️bme.ufl.edu/lewis-awarded-…

Check out our latest manuscript from the Jamal S. Lewis lab, “Engineering Antigen-Presenting Cells for Immunotherapy of Autoimmunity” published in Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews Editors of Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Congratulations to Dr. Benjamin Keselowsky who was elected a Fellow of Biomaterials Science and Engineering (FBSE) by the IUSBSE, the highest honor the global biomaterials community can bestow on outstanding scientists. Benjamin Keselowsky #WBC2024

All NIH funded and relevant researchers NEED to study this NIH restructuring proposal from the US #Congress. Huge implications! Comment period is critical to provide input. I will. E.g., NIBIB goes away or folded into others - but IMHO too many overlaps.

Very proud of my undergrad Daniel Osorio who’s finishing up his REU at my alma mater Georgia Tech in the The Botchwey Laboratory ! Also, lookout for his work in the Jamal S. Lewis lab at the upcoming Biomedical Engineering Society conference where he screened small molecules for tolerogenic dendritic cells

Excited to welcome Dr. Herbert 'Herbie' Wertheim today, showcasing the transformative research happening in Drs. Kyle Allen & Jamal Lewis' labs. His visionary support fuels our quest for breakthroughs, inspiring the next generation of biomedical engineers! #GatorEngineers

Drug Delivery Technologies for Autoimmunity Therapies - Read the new Special Issue published in Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews, edited by Dr. Michael Mitchell, Dr. Jessica Weaver & Dr. Ryan Pearson! spkl.io/6016f6ih0

It was a pleasure to speak at #NanoDDS about our work on mRNA LNPs and hypoxia! Thank you for the invitation to present our research Dr. MEI HE Fan Zhang (張帆) Jamal S. Lewis and Carlos Rinaldi-Ramos, and thanks to all organizers for such a great conference!!
