Come check out the Esser-Kahn lab at the ACS Fall conference! We are excited to reunite with old friends and make new connections over the next few days.

A bunch of "proud emists" having a great time and representing the AEK lab well at ACS this week in Chicago!

Excited to see a highlight of our recent work on using trained immunity to enhance vaccine responses in @AdvSciNews ! advancedsciencenews.com/trained-immuni…

My first authorship paper from Precision Vaccines Program (Dr. David J. Dowling, Ph.D. , Dr. Ofer Levy, MD PhD ) with the collaboration of Evan Scott,Sharan Bobbala. #Flublok #Adjuvant #Polymersomes pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Check out our latest work in #AdjuvantDiscovery on tuning innate immune responses to vaccines in ACS Central Science pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.102… Many thanks to NIAID News for funding this work and @Dereklowe for the excellent discussion here: science.org/content/blog-p…

When PME researchers added small molecules called immunomodulators to vaccines, they found the combined therapy could both increase antibodies and reduce inflammation, potentially leading to better vaccines with fewer side effects. pme.uchicago.edu/news/immunomod… #Vaccines #Health

“We’re able to selectively tune the immune response to reduce negative side effects.” -- Graduate student Jeremiah Kim pme.uchicago.edu/news/immunomod…

The Esser-Kahn lab proudly minted two new Ph.D.s this week! Adam Weiss (Ph.D. UChicago Chemistry) is headed to the Center for Translational Medicine at University of Montana. Liza Mulder (Ph.D. UChiPhysics) is continuing her work in the EK Lab as a postdoc. We are so proud of you!

In a new contract with NIAID News, The University of Chicago's Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (PME) professor Aaron Esser-Kahn and his team of researchers aim to create a flu vaccine that has fewer side effects, making it safer for vulnerable populations. pme.uchicago.edu/news/pritzker-…

Aaron Esser-Kahn, @FergLab and a team of researchers at The University of Chicago's Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering developed a potential first for the field of #vaccine design. pme.uchicago.edu/news/researche…

In a potential first for the field of vaccine design, machine learning guided the discovery of new immune pathway-enhancing molecules and found one particular small molecule that could outperform the best immunomodulators on the market. news-medical.net/news/20231117/…

We used artificial intelligence methods to guide a search of a huge chemical space," said Prof. Aaron Esser-Kahn, "In doing so, we found molecules with record-level performance that no human would have suggested we try. We're excited to share the blueprint for this process."

Some nice work by Hojin Kim on shear jamming piezoelectric particle suspensions. Some cool fundamental insights and using the jamming process to induce chemistry. Congrats!

Powerful approach using AI in drug screening, pme.uchicago.edu/news/researche… Congratulations to Esser-Kahn lab Esser-Kahn Lab , and nice to see our CSC HTS shop in the pictures

Shaping the Future of Vaccine development: Meet the Next Generation of scientists, brought to you by the EK Lab!

Congratulations to Farsa Ram! After two successful years as a postdoctoral researcher in the Esser-Kahn lab, he is now embarking on the next exciting phase of his career. Check out some of his exciting work! scholar.google.co.in/citations?user…

Today, two of our lab members presented their incredible research at the inaugural Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering research symposium. Great work Riley and Oliver! UChicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering Hannah Riley Knight
