        <p class="lead">Our group creates novel biological systems that perform customized, sophisticated functions for applications in biotechnology and medicine. Using the tools of synthetic biology, protein and biomolecule engineering, systems biology, and gene therapy, we develop technologies for manipulating and coordinating complex multicellular functions. A central area of interest for our group is controlling the function of a complex biological network - the human immune system – by engineering novel biomolecules and programmable cell-based “devices” to create novel, customized immune functions. By enabling clinicians to modify local immune responses in a patient- and disease-specific fashion, we are overcoming barriers to treatment for conditions ranging from cancer and chronic infections to autoimmune disease and transplant rejection. <a href="#">link</a></p>

Team

Meet the team!

Tiffany Kwakwa
Tiffany Kwakwa

Tiffany loves french fries and the colors pink and sea foam green. She is a rising junior studying Environmental Engineering and how to recycle and reuse everything. In her spare time she can be found in bakeries or drinking tea.

Kristi Lui
Kristi Lui

Kristi has an odd sense of humor and is basically the wild child. When not pipetting, she’s usually watching one of many TV shows (but mainly Dexter) or studying for the MCAT.

Mitch Perkins
Mitch Perkins

Mitch is a potential Anthropology major, but currently focusing on Biology. Constantly greeting team members with a “Yo!” and sharing pictures of his dog, there is no one else as chill, except maybe the -80 fridge.

Sharon Chen
Sharon Chen

When not studying for the MCAT, Sharon is in the lab or sleeping. Mainly sleeping. A rising senior Art History and Biology major, she loves cherries and expensive oatmeal.

David Lee
David Lee

David is a rising star who has also risen into our hearts with his wit and charm. The other departments are jealous that he chose Biomedical Engineering. His only vice is his addiction to Game of Thrones, finishing 10 episodes in one night after returning from a day at the lab.

Adam Baker
Adam Baker

Adam is a bassist and speed reader, going through multiple books in one sitting as well as the technical papers related to our project. He’s a rising junior Chemical Engineer who we fall back on for knowledge and fact recollection.

Abdullah Memon
Abdullah Memon

Abdullah has been graced with the gift of amazing handwriting and tasteful quips. He’s a rising junior on a pre-med track to saving lives and making fat stacks.

Meet the advisors!

Dr. Josh Leonard Assistant Professor of Chemical and Biological Engineering
Dr. Mike Jewett Assistant Professor of Chemical and Biological Engineering
Dr. Keith Tyo Assistant Professor of Chemical and Biological Engineering
Dr. John C Mordacq Distinguished Senior Lecturer of Biological Sciences at Northwestern University

Meet the grad students who helped us!

Will Bothfeld Tyo Lab

When there is a will, there is a way. Our biggest thank-you goes to our official TA of the summer!

Graduate Student in Chemical Engineering, Started 2012/University of Wisconsin – Madison, B.S. Biochemistry & Biology, 2010/Project: Experimental Metabolic Engineering

Karthik Sekar Tyo Lab

PhD Candidate in Chemical Engineering, Started 2010/University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, B.S. Biomedical Engineering, 2009/Project: Computational & Experimental Metabolic Engineering

Sarah Steinbrook Tyo Lab

Not only is Sarah super quick when replying our emergency "what to do" emails, she is also the master of troubleshooting - anything and everything - especially the elusive colony PCR.

Graduate Student in IBiS, Started 2014/Ohio University, B.S. Molecular Biology/Project: Signaling Engineering

Joe Muldoon Leonard Lab

Joe! Our beloved iGEM veteran, modeling guru, and let's-talk-math person! We will miss those meetings in the ChemE lab!

Interdisciplinary Biological Sciences Graduate Program (IBiS)/B.S. in Biology, B.S. in Chemistry, University of Virginia 2013/Research Interests: Systems and synthetic immunology and “knowing is half the battle.”

Andrew Younger Leonard Lab

Without Andrew's help, we would still be running a million gels a day and not knowing why nothing was showing up. No, he assured us that DNA was not suddenly positive. The buffer was wrong, that's all.
