A grant funded researcher in the Bioinspired Materials and Devices group working primarily in exploring new frontiers for T cell immunotherapy enhancement and performance evaluation. My research looks at a multidisciplinary approach at understanding T cell mechanobiology and understanding how materials can alter T cell behavior. Primarily this focus is for development of enhanced T cell immunotherapies such as CAR-T. I also am interested in the evaluation of immune cells by developing new advanced non animal models for investigating the efficacy and safety.
