Excited to share some of my PhD work was pre-printed! Using single-cell sequencing, we took a deep look at a library of CAR signaling architectures to try to identify signal-intrinsic drivers of CAR-T function🧵👇 @MEBirnbaum @kochinstitute @MITdeptofBE biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

.@MEbirnbaum has been chosen to receive this year’s Bose Award for Excellence in Teaching. This award celebrates a faculty member who exemplifies exceptional dedication, care, and creativity in undergraduate education.

An incredibly impressive body of work from the newly-minted PhD @calebrperez comparing clinical candidate CAR-T architectures head-to-head at single cell resolution, shedding light on mechanisms of differential CAR-T efficacy in vivo with insights into better construct design 🚗

"It is my great pleasure to announce that Professor @MEBirnbaum has been promoted to Associate Professor With Tenure. He is making outstanding contributions to BE, MIT and our field with his scholarship, teaching, mentoring and service." BE Dept Head Angela Belcher
