Jewell Lab receives Damon Runyon Rachleff Stage II Innovator Award

10/20/2016

 
​Prof. Jewell and the lab are the recipient of the Damon Runyon-Rachleff Stage II Innovator Award. This award builds on the lab's Stage 1 work and provides $600,000 over 4 years to support a high-risk project aimed at combating melanoma by programming T cell plasticity. The goal is to generate selective and effective cancer vaccines by controlling how T cells expand and attack tumors. Thanks to the Damon Runyon Foundation, and the selection committee for their time and comments during the in-person interview in NYC. We look forward to advancing the project in the coming years.

Boyan presents oral talk at national BMES meeting

10/6/2016

 
Congratulations to Boyan Xia, Undergraduate HHMI Fellow in the lab, who presented a fantastic talk on Thursday during the national meeting of the Biomedical Engineering Society. Boyan, who is unusual in being selected to present during the regular meeting programming as an undergraduate, discussed her work focused on designing degradable polyelectrolyte multilayers to promote immunological tolerance. Keep up the good work!
