What better way to wrap up #cmbe2025 than with two outstanding talks by @LongweiLiu on getting T cells to "hear" for ultrasound-mediated CAR-T, and by @jbrunger on synthetic mechanoreceptors against neurodegenerarion (work by undergrad Dylan J.Conger!)

Congrats @JennyNJiang on your Momentum Award (sponsored by @aplbioeng ) and thanks for the insipring trajectory of your work on decoding antigen-specific T cells, from high-dimensional profiling to biophysics to therapeutic development. @pennbioeng #cmbe2025

Learning about the MAGIK of creating reporter stems cell with Dr. Xiaojn Lian, about RNA targeting with CRISPR with Dr. @JainLaboratory and high throughput in vivo screening with Dr. @FanZhang_zzZ - lots or possible future collaborative work! #cmbe2025

Can we do spatial transcriptomics without having to slide tissues up? Check out Rising Star @jaweinst work on DNA imaging in 3D in intact organisms! #cmbe2025 #imaging

Rising Star @JunChenLab made us feel the pull of magnetoelasticity in soft matter for bioelectronics – where science gets flexible, magnetic, and "shockingly" bio-friendly! 🧲✨

4 generations of bioengineers of Shu Chien lab got together @BMES_CMBE symposium @wang_yingxiao @NganHuang @AijunWangLab
Great Rising Star talk by Dr. Guosong Hong on how we are bags of opaque fatty water, but with @Doritos dye, we can become transiently transparent and great for imaging! #cmbe2025 #imaging #Transparency

A great keynote by Dr. @KunZhangBioE over multiple models of kidney injury and repair down to the single cell, at the interface between academia and industry @altos_labs #cmbe2025

A touching introduction by Dr. @edguo84 for Dr. @QinYiPh accepting the Chris Jacobs Leadership Award. In Dr. Yi-Xian Qin's words: "This award is a celebration of our SIG and of Chris Jacobs legacy" #CMBE2025 @stonybrooku @ColumbiaBME

Last poster session and still running strong with lively discussions. Everybody ready for the poster people's choice award? #CMBE2025

Congrats @MattIshahak for your postdoc award and Bella Raykowski & Tianyu Chen for your graudate students award, uch exciting research, and looking forward to your posters! #CMBE2025

Is your brain runningcrazy with new ideas? It should after the talks of Dr. @AdamEnglerUCSD on mechanical memory of oral squamous cell carcinoma and Dr. @jacopoferruzzi on the regulation of 3D breast cancer invasion by YAP/TAZ #cmbe2025

Congrats to Rising Star Dr. @LabRaghavan for her work on mechano-immunological reponse to peristalss in colorectal cancer, aptly delivered in absentia by Dr. @abbieclev #cmbe2025
