Bio-Inspired Engineering for Advanced Therapies
Congratulations to Ujjal Sekhon from Haima Therapeutics and Dante Disharoon from our Case Western Reserve University Biomedical Engineering lab, for being selected to present their research at the DARPA FORWARD symposium at The Ohio State University, and being awarded in the Top 5 category for their research on therapeutic and diagnostic technologies to treat trauma-induced coagulopathies in far forward settings!
Excited to report that our lab has received a contract award from US Army PRMRP program to optimize and evaluate a new nanomedicine system for intravenous targeted enzyme-triggered direct delivery of thrombin for hemorrhage control! Potential use will be to manage acute bleeding in trauma, surgery etc.
This past Summer (2022), Michael Sun successfully defended his PhD thesis titled “Clot-Targeted Enzyme-Responsive Nanoparticles for Thrombolytic Therapy”. Congratulations Dr. Michael Sun!
DaShawn Hickman successfully defended his PhD thesis titled “Platelet-inspired Nanomedicine for the Hemostatic Management of Bleeding Complications in Thrombocytopenia and Trauma”. Congratulations, Dr. DaShawn Hickman!
DaShawn Hickman presented his research on the effect of SynthoPlate in trauma at the Hemostasis Gordon Research Conference in Waterville Valley, New Hampshire.
Dr. Pawlowski presents at hemostasis and wound healing session at the SfB annual conference, 2018 in Atlanta on translational development of synthoplate technology by Haima Therapeutics LLC.
Ujjal, Aditya and Michael joined the local Society for Biomaterials chapter’s organizing team as Vice President, Treasurer and PR chair, respectively. Congratulations Ujjal, Aditya and Michael!
Dr. Sen Gupta becomes the chair of the membership committee for SfB focused on enhancing the membership involvement and activities within the society.
