Wrapping up #BMES2024 strong

Got in one final session before leaving Baltimore #BMES2024

Come join our team! My lab in Rice University Bioengineering is hiring postdocs with expertise in immunology (tinyurl.com/3v6aumta), genome editing (tinyurl.com/48adap27), or chemistry (tinyurl.com/5n7erutf). Please apply or encourage your trainees to apply! RTs appreciated.

Had a great time visiting Johns Hopkins BME and reconnecting with some Baltimore friends last week!

A huge congratulations to Dr. Lynna Lynna Baryakova for successfully defending her thesis this week! Lynna's work employs chemical labeling strategies to attach drugs to the surface of bacteria in vivo with applications in gastrointestinal and infectious diseases.

I'm very grateful to receive this recognition.

My lab is looking to hire several postdocs to lead translational research projects. Please reach out if you are a spring or summer PhD grad with expertise in immunology, genome editing, or chemistry. RTs appreciated!

A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Robert Langer for delivering an unforgettable talk at Rice’s President’s Lecture Series Monday. In “The Road Not Taken,” Dr. Langer shared powerful lessons from his remarkable journey — from chemical engineering to breakthroughs in nanotech and

Scott Berry (U Kentucky) and I are co-chairing the Global Health Technologies Track at #BMES2025. Please take advantage of the extended abstract submission deadline to submit your work to our track!

Congrats to Gabby, Tyler, and Emily who cleaned up at the Rice University Bioengineering Grad Awards Ceremony today

The Matthew J. Webber is looking to hire a synthetic supramolecular chemist for a project to identify and screen new macrocycles for biologically relevant recognition. Please send inquiries to me via email, including a CV and statement of research accomplishments.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors are a Nobel Prize-winning technology, but how can we make them more effective while reducing irAEs? Check out @henrichemily's new review of the leading biomaterial-based strategies for ICI delivery in J Controlled Release to learn more doi.org/10.1016/j.jcon…

Thank you, Molecular Pharmaceutics - University of Utah and Taslim Al-Hilal for inviting me to visit your department! I enjoyed hearing about the exciting research everyone is doing and seeing your beautiful campus. It was my first time in Utah but certainly won't be my last!
