Research Interests

Research Interests

Cell therapy and advanced therapy development, manufacturing, and commercialization. Product characterization and performance correlation.

Teaching Interests

Teaching Interests

Providing students with a holistic understanding of advanced therapy development. From concept to product, what it takes to create a successful commercial therapy. Focused on co-instructional models with industry representation and applications so students experience "real-world" scenarios and requirements.
