Development of High-Density Active Neural Interfaces using Conjugated Polymers Dr. Ilke Uguz Postdoctoral Research Associate, Columbia University Precise, stable, and biocompatible neural interfaces are crucial for effective brain-machine interfaces and therapeutic interventions. Conjugated polymers offer exceptional potential for such applications, owing to their softness, biocompatibility, and mixed ionic and electronic charge transport properties. By integrating […]

Exploiting Antigen Presentation Pathways for Precision Immune Engineering Dr. Nova Pishesha, Junior Fellow, Society of Fellows at Harvard University Current treatments for autoimmunity rely on general immunosuppression, which exposes patients to opportunistic infections. Hence, immunoregulatory modalities, which educate the immune system to induce antigen-specific tolerance are desirable. My doctoral research revolved around engineered red blood […]
