Exciting to see this work from @Replicate_Bio out! A single dose rabies vaccine with no serious adverse events in humans is quite remarkable. Fun collaboration for @credo_casmil and I, and exciting to see saRNA technology realizing its promise in humans:

Our most recent publication in @MolTherapy led by @credo_casmil shows that the saRNA backbone impacts both protein expression and vaccine immunogenicity- can’t wait to see where we go with these new vectors!

Hot off the press- new paper from my lab exploring the use of bioactive phospholipids in LNPs! Many are known to have functions in specific cell types, leading to a change in cytokine secretion profiles in human PBMCs:

What a fun day of strategizing, socializing, and hat hair for all!
Our brilliant faculty came together for an energizing day of strategic planning and looking to the future of SBME and biomedical engineering. We have so many exciting things ahead of us, including our new building opening, and we are grateful to have this team leading the way.
