How can we get cell therapies where they need to go? With SomaCode, a high-throughput, in vivo platform technology that helps deliver therapeutic cells to their targets within the body! #CellTherapy #DrugDelivery wyss.harvard.edu/technology/som…

this week's Harvard SEAS #topicsbioeng welcomes Alexandra Rutz WashU McKelvey Engineering WashU Biomedical Engineering who will be giving a seminar on 'conducting polymer hydrogels for soft, 3D printed bioelectronic interfaces.' Join us for her seminar here Harvard SEAS, in person at SEC 6.301+6.302 this thursday 🧬⛈️🧫

We have retracted our 2018 paper on magnetic nano spears as the fluorescent methodology used to measure transfection efficiency was incorrect and led to significant overestimates and the original data are no longer available bit.ly/RetrNSp18

Excited to share that my 1st first-author original paper is out: “A backpack-based myeloid cell therapy for multiple sclerosis”! We demonstrate a biomaterials-mediated approach for effective cell therapy in a model of MS. Samir Mitragotri Harvard SEAS Wyss Institute pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

My PI 🥰☺️🥰😊

Leveraging the strengths of nanoparticulate drug delivery systems and macro-scale substrates, disk-shaped microdisks (also known as 'backpacks') introduce novel prospects for material-cell interaction, charting a pioneering path towards the advancement of cell therapies. Harvard SEAS

Congratulations on this remarkable achievement, Supriya Prakash, Ph.D.! Working with you on this exciting project is a true pleasure. Wanna learn an innovative approach of modulating NK cells? Check out this paper 👇😀

Curious how backpacks on cells look like? Here’s a colorized SEM of a backpack on a T cell. Backpacks are discoidal polymer particles that are large enough to support the cell, but small enough to migrate with the cell Wyss Institute Image: Griff Bibbey SUYOG GIRISH SHAHA Harvard SEAS

What a significant breakthrough in the cell therapy field 🤩 Here comes the first cell therapy *Lantidra* to personalise Type 1 diabetes treatment! pharmaceutical-technology.com/comment/type-1… via Pharma Technology Focus

Life changing *topical* gene therapy for a rare blistering skin disease! This video reminds me -- one of my HST professors once said that we need to always keep the patients in mind and work harder to facilitate these advanced treatments from bench to bed. youtu.be/b9LdebhBCSY?si…

Look at these particles that resemble many little planets (so cute!). They are actually cells with disk-shaped microparticles that allow us to make invisible injuries 'visible'. Check out our paper freshly published in Science Translational Medicine at: lnkd.in/d9GTeKc6

Congratulations to Neha Kapate, PhD and Rick Liao for this great work using backpacks to treat traumatic brain injuries. Let's expand the power of backpack! Go backpackers 😄

In PNASNews Nexus, Wyss researchers led by Samir Mitragotri used macrophages with microparticle "backpacks" to reduce brain lesions from mock traumatic brain injury by 56% in animal models. #TBI #TraumaticBrainInjury academic.oup.com/pnasnexus/arti…

Thanks for posting our work, Parkinson's News Today! --- Methods, like MRI, leave undiagnosed most cases of mild traumatic brain injury. Learn more about the brain imaging method may aid mild traumatic brain injury diagnosis 👇parkinsonsnewstoday.com/news/brain-ima…

Wow, exciting to see this!

Okay….. as a scientist working with macrophages for years, I guess I have been primed into a MACROPHAGE person 😆

Standing at the intersection of biomaterials, drug delivery, and cell therapy—my favorite research domains—I'm excited to share how biomaterial-based drug delivery systems are enhancing cell therapy advancements. Check it out here 👉 rdcu.be/dNVc7.
