So happy to have had the chance to hold the 4th Annual Emerging Leaders in Biomedical Engineering Symposium earlier this month with @ndsheybani and Kelsey Kubelick at @UVABME. We heard from six amazing postdocs and our keynote speaker @ProfScottBME.
.@SFBiomaterials Southeast Symposium, hosted by @GeorgiaTech@ibbgatech@GaTech_Immuno, is a full house w/ fantastic plenary talks, invited speakers, & incredible presentations from trainees from 11+ states! Thanks all for making this a major success & giving us a chance to lead!
On behalf of Program Chairs & Committee, I'm thrilled to announce our distinguished speakers & exciting meeting agenda for @SFBiomaterials Southeast Symposium, @GeorgiaTech in #Atlanta (Sep 19-20, 2024). Grateful to our sponsors! Early Bird Reg. ends 8/13. https://t.co/J6l4GTDSw5
It's a good day for the #VolpattiLab! Congratulations to @NorthwesternBME PhD students Ethan and Bobby on receiving fellowships today!
And again to (incoming) @nu_chbe PhD student @KayleighET for the #NSFGRFP.
Time to celebrate! 🎉
Northwestern Medicine investigators have uncovered how a #protein contributes to heart #transplant tolerance in mice, per @PNASNews. https://t.co/rcTPlsXvMI
To test therapeutic potential, we teamed up with my fellow @HALOdotscience 40 under 40 recipient, @ProfScottBME and his postdoc, Dr. Fanfan Du, to use their micelles to target Rox to myeloid cells and found that Rox treatment prolonged heart transplant survival! 12/17
An amazing morning hearing the @INVOatNU FoundHer Fellows make their final practice pitches before a 2-day VC networking trip to San Francisco later this month — https://t.co/kYyLCmX4vD
Preeminent expert in the use of nanotechnology to understand and fight disease, Evan Scott, PhD, has been appointed director of the UVA Institute for Nanoscale Scientific and Technological Advanced Research, or nanoSTAR. @ProfScottBME@uvahealthnews@UVA https://t.co/UnnL1AHjkC
@FaubelRegina@AllergicLiving This is an excellent point, but please note that there is no PEG in the nanoparticles used in this study. PEG is an issue mainly because it is found in so many products currently on the market. But here we use a novel polymer that doesn't have prior exposure.
For futuristic approaches to #foodallergies, it's hard to rival the work of Prof. Evan Scott & team at @NorthwesternMedicine. They coated #nanoparticles in 2 antibodies, shutting down mast cells. This prevented anaphylaxis in mice. We look at the work + potential. @ProfScottBME
Professor Evan Scott is part of a team that has developed the first selective therapy to prevent allergic reactions, which can range in severity from itchy hives and watery eyes to trouble breathing and even death.

Northwestern investigators, led by @NUCATSInstitute TL1 Co-Director @ProfScottBME, have developed the first selective therapy to prevent allergic reactions, which can range in severity from itchy hives and watery eyes to trouble breathing and even death — https://t.co/hXB7x9iYiC
IIN faculty member Evan Scott @ProfScottBME is at the forefront of medical innovation! His latest research introduces a selective therapy using decorated nanoparticles to prevent allergic reactions. A targeted approach with 100% success in mouse studies. https://t.co/g4xz5Zx6Vd
In research published in @NatureNano, SQI member Evan Scott (@ProfScottBME) and colleagues developed the first selective therapy to prevent allergic reactions. The approach uses nanoparticles to target mast cells responsible for specific allergies.
