Wilbur Lam, Vice Provost for Entrepreneurship at Emory University, shared on LinkedIn:
“So proud of Kendall Williams whose PhD work was just published in Nature Biomedical Engineering in close collaboration with Sunita Park, Reginald Tran, Christopher Porter, Ryan J Summers, Theodora Alese, Jamie O Musick, and Melissa Kemp.
This technology will help pediatric hematologist/oncologists quickly figure out which 3 drug combos work best for their leukemia patients with just a single blood or marrow sample.
It’s also extremely bittersweet as this is Dan Zhang’s last publication and we’re honored that the journal allowed us to dedicate this article to him. Dan was a generous, kind and gifted scientist who is dearly missed. To ‘more better days.’ ”
Title: Gradient-driven microfluidic framework for the screening of ratiometric drug combinations towards precision oncology in paediatric leukaemia
