Congratulations to Vivian Hu for successfully defending her dissertation!

We’re thrilled to celebrate Vivian Hu for successfully defending her dissertation titled “Engineering Cell-Free Modified Liposomal Platforms for Vaccines and Biosensors.” Vivian’s work established a rapid cell-free liposomal platform for incorporating viral membrane proteins, enabling multivalent vaccine development against emerging pathogens such as Nipah virus. Congratulations, Dr. Hu, on this incredible achievement!

The Kamat Lab escapes the room

The Kamat lab took a field trip downtown to practice our problem solving skills at The Escape Game, eat some Shake Shack, and celebrate an exciting first summer!
