Ashley Baltes Joins Juno Therapeutics, Inc.
Dr. Baltes recently moved to the Seattle, WA area and joined Juno Therapeutics, Inc. as a Viral Vector Process Development Scientist. We wish her well in her new endeavor!
Welcome Oluleye Hezekiah Babatunde!
Our new postdoc, Dr. Babatunde, comes to use by way of Nigeria and Australia. He studies quantitative modeling and analysis of chemical and biological systems generally, and specifically looks at development of mathematical methods for advancement of mechanistic and system-level understanding of virus and host processes during virus infections using established and culture systems, mathematical modeling and quantitative imaging of infection spread.
Congratulations Ashley Baltes, Ph.D.!
Ashley Baltes successfully defended her dissertation The development and optimization of quantitative fluorescent reporters to visualize real-time kinetics of virus-host interactions.
She will remain with the lab for the summer of 2016 and then move to Seattle to pursue a career. Congratulations and best wishes to Ashley in her future endeavors!
Congratulations Bahar Inankur Ph.D.!
Bahar Inankur successfully defended her dissertation
Development of tools to study how virus-host cell interactions influence infection spread.
She is moving to New Jersey to join Bristol-Myers Squibb.
Congratulations and best wishes to Bahar in her future endeavors!
John Yin explores systems chemistry and origins of life
John Yin has been working for years on characterizing virus growth and infection spread with computational models, studying antiviral cellular defense, and battling viruses with new strategies. His leadership in chemical engineering and virology as well as in WID’s Systems Biology theme has made him a prolific researcher. But starting now, Yin is ready to open a new chapter, one that has been on his mind since the beginning of his career: the Origins of Life.
