CBE/BE Seminar: “Targeting Sugars for Immunotherapy in Cancer and Beyond” (Jessica Stark, Stanford)
Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United StatesCo-hosted by the Departments of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering & Bioengineering. New paradigms to harness the immune system are urgently needed to address unmet needs in human health. I am working to understand and engineer glycoimmunology – the roles of sugars, or glycans, in the immune system – to bridge this gap. During my PhD, […]
BE Seminar: “Probing Metabolism Across Scales” (Yihui Shen, Princeton University)
Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building 220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United StatesMetabolism supports the biosynthetic and energetic demand of all living creatures. Over decades, we have accumulated knowledge of how individual enzymes work in vitro, but we don’t have a good sense about how they work together in vivo. Thus, fundamental to our understanding of metabolic operation is the ability to measure metabolic activity in vivo. […]
BE Seminar: “Programming multicellular interactions and organization using synthetic cell adhesion molecules” (Adam Stevens, UCSF)
Glandt Forum, Singh Center for Nanotechnology 3205 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United StatesCell adhesion molecules (CAMs) are ubiquitous in multicellular organisms and specify precise cellular interactions in processes as diverse as tissue development and immune cell trafficking. We have generated an array of synthetic CAMs by combining orthogonal extracellular interactions with native intracellular domains. Diverse homotypic or heterotypic extracellular binding domains specify the connectivity between cells, while […]
(Re)Connecting in the Classroom: Evan C Thompson Lecture on Excellence in Teaching
Van Pelt Library, Kislak Center, 6th Floor 3420 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, United StatesLately there has been much talk in universities and the public about "the great disengagement." As we emerge from the pandemic era, many students and instructors alike are experiencing a lack of energy and motivation, and we are seeking encounters in the classroom that are transformative, rather than simply transactional. In this talk, Daeyeon Lee […]
