Ravi wins at AIChE Regional Conference
Congratulations to Lipke Lab undergraduate researcher Ravi Nataraj for winning 2nd place at the AIChE Regional Conference Poster Competition for his work, “Adaptation of a Microfluidic System for Use in High-Throughput Drug Screening”. Ravi was also recently elected to co-lead the BMES Design Team and will work towards developing a cost-effective, adjustable foot and ankle prothesis specifically targeted to female populations. This design will enable a multitude of shoe options ranging from tennis shoes to high heels! Keep up the awesome work, Ravi!
Dr. Lipke and Nicole Present at AACR Annual Meeting
Dr. Lipke and Nicole recently had the wonderful opportunity to attend and present at the 2022 AACR Meeting in NOLA. We were excited to learn about the newest advances in cancer research, meet with collaborators, and share our work towards developing pathophysiologically-relevant tissue engineered cancer models!
