Congratulations to Lipke Lab undergraduate researcher, Michaela Bush, for publishing her research in the Auburn University Journal of Undergraduate Scholarship! The work showcased in this article was performed as a part of Michaela’s Undergraduate Research Fellowship and we are incredibly proud of her contributions to the lab. Check out her article here!
Lipke Lab members Dr. Yuan Tian, Dr. Wen J. Seeto, and Dr. Lipke collaborated with the Department of Clinical Sciences at the Auburn School of Veterinary Medicine and employed ECFC microspheres in equine distal limb wound healing. We are excited to announce that this research was just published in BMC Veterinary Research and is titled, “Cell engraftment, vascularization, and inflammation after treatment of equine distal limb wounds with endothelial colony forming cells encapsulated within hydrogel microspheres”. Check out the article here. Congratulations to all Lipke Lab members and our collaborators!
We are so pleased to announce that our manuscript, “Rapid Production of Cell-Laden Microspheres Using a Flexible Microfluidic Encapsulation Platform” was accepted for publication in Small! It was also selected as the inside back cover article. Congratulations to past and current Lipke Lab members, Dr. Wen J. Seeto, Dr. Yuan Tian, Dr. Shantanu Pradhan, Dr. Petra Kerscher, and Dr. Lipke! Check out the article here.
Graduate researcher, Nicole Habbit, and Dr. Lipke collaborated on the Advanced Functional Materials review article, “Microphysiological Systems as Enabling Tools for Modeling Complexity in the Tumor Microenvironment and Accelerating Cancer Drug Development”. We are so excited to announce that our article was selected as the front cover article of Volume 29, Issue 22. Check it out here!
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the world, so the Lipke Lab joined the American Heart Association and wore red on February 7th, 2020 to raise awareness and support the fight against heart disease and stroke!
As the Vice-President of the Auburn Council of Engineering Graduate Students, graduate researcher Nicole Habbit was heavily involved in planning and executing the annual Graduate Engineering Research Showcase. This is the second consecutive year that Nicole has planned this event and we are so proud of her commitment to representing our lab and department on campus!
For the second year in a row, every Lipke Lab researcher who presented at the Auburn Graduate Engineering Research Showcase won an award! Iman Hassani won 3rd place overall, Morgan Ellis and Ferdous Finklea each won honorable mentions, and Mohammad Hashemi won best in chemical engineering. Over 120 graduate engineering students presented at the showcase and our lab members won 4 out of 9 awards they were eligible for! It is safe to say that we are very, very proud of their hard work and presentation skills.
Congratulations to the newly minted Dr. Yuan Tian for passing his final dissertation defense! We are so proud of your hard work and can’t wait to cheer you on in the next steps of your career.
Congratulations to Lipke Lab graduate researcher, Nicole Habbit, for winning 2nd place overall in the graduate student category at the 21st annual O’Neal Comprehensive Cancer Center Research Retreat! Her presentation was titled “Prostate Cancer-on-a-chip Platform for in vitro Anti-cancer Therapeutic Evaluation”.
Our Lipke Lab cancer research team (along with our mascot, Archie the Lab lab) traveled to Birmingham to attend the UAB O’Neal Comprehensive Cancer Center Research Retreat! Mohammad, Benny, Iman, and Nicole (and Archie) each presented their work during the poster session competition. We had a wonderful time learning all about the cancer research efforts going on in our region and sharing our own research.
