Our laboratory is interested in how these mechanical experiences influence cell behavior, state, and fate across cancer, stem cell, and developmental systems. Using engineered microchannels, we have shown that adult stem cells can navigate highly confined spaces and that this process is accompanied by changes in differentiation-associated transcription factors and epigenetic state. We have also developed high-throughput porous confinement platforms that allow migrated cell populations to be isolated and subjected to downstream molecular profiling, providing a way to connect physical behavior with transcriptional and epigenomic changes at scale. More recently, we have extended these questions into development using primordial germ cells, which undergo striking nuclear deformation as they migrate through narrow interstitial spaces in vivo. Together, this work supports a broader view of confinement not simply as a barrier to migration, but as a potentially instructive mechanical signal that helps shape cellular identity and maturation.\u003Cbr\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003Cbr\u003EBIO\u003Cbr\u003EAndrew Holle received a Bachelor of Science, Engineering (B.S.E) from Arizona State University, where he worked in labs of Christine Pauken and Deirdre Meldrum. He then received his Ph.D. at the University of California, San Diego, where he worked in Adam Engler\u2019s Stem Cell Biology and Bioengineering group. There, he identified the mechanosensitive role of the focal adhesion protein vinculin in substrate stiffness-induced stem cell differentiation. Looking to explore the commonalities between stem cell and cancer mechanobiology, he then joined Prof. Joachim Spatz\u2019s Cellular Biophysics group at the Max Planck Institute for Medical Research (Stuttgart, Germany). There, he used photolithography and microfluidics to build microchannel assays to better characterize cancer cell invasion and migration in confinement. His Confinement Mechanobiology lab at the Mechanobiology Institute and in the NUS Biomedical Engineering department focuses on the role of confinement in mechanobiology, with an emphasis on novel strategies for controlling stem cell differentiation.\u0026nbsp;\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:jennifer.curtis@physics.gatech.edu\u0022\u003EJennifer Curtis\u003C\/a\u003E - faculty host\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u0022Confinement Mechanobiology: How Physical Microenvironments Shape Cell Migration, State, and Fate\u0022 - Andrew Holle, National University of Singapore\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"\u0022Confinement Mechanobiology: How Physical Microenvironments Shape Cell Migration, State, and Fate\u0022 - Andrew Holle, National University of Singapore "}],"uid":"27195","created_gmt":"2026-09-09 21:31:19","changed_gmt":"2026-09-11 14:38:35","author":"Colly Mitchell","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-10-20T11:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2026-10-20T12:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-10-20T12:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-10-20 15:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-10-20 16:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-10-20 16:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Petit Biotechnology Building (IBB), 315 Ferst Drive NW, Suddath Seminar Room 1128, Atlanta, GA 30332","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"1292","name":"Parker H.

During aging, the extracellular matrix undergoes substantial changes in its composition, architecture, and mechanical properties, yet how these changes contribute to age-associated cellular dysfunction remains incompletely understood. Our work focuses on defining how age-related matrix remodeling alters cell behavior and developing experimental approaches to disentangle the biochemical and mechanical contributions of the extracellular environment. This talk will highlight our studies of extracellular matrix mechanobiology across aging tissues, together with biomaterial platforms that recapitulate key matrix properties in vitro at the micro- and nanoscale. By combining measurements of native tissue mechanics with highly defined engineered microenvironments, we aim to uncover mechanisms through which the aging matrix regulates cell and tissue function and identify opportunities for matrix-based therapeutic strategies.\u003Cbr\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003Cbr\u003EBIO\u003Cbr\u003EJennifer Young was trained as a biomedical engineer at the University of California, San Diego.

Computational analysis of menstrual blood loss and uterine vascular anatomy suggests that spiral arterioles are a plausible major source of menstrual bleeding. The high shear rates generated within these small vessels may also favor shear-induced platelet aggregation (SIPA), providing a potential mechanism for rapid hemostasis following endometrial shedding. An ongoing clinical study at Georgia Tech examines whether dysfunction in SIPA and primary hemostasis is present in a subset of women with HMB. This work connects spiral arteriole hemodynamics with clinical measurements of hemostatic function to better understand why menstrual bleeding becomes excessive in some women.\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E\u201c\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cem\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ESynthetic Notch Circuits Enable In Vivo Measurement of Endogenous Forces on Immune Cell Receptors\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/em\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E\u201d - Menglan Li, Research Scientist, Georgia Tech\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Ch6\u003EAbstract\u003C\/h6\u003E\u003Cp\u003EUnderstanding how mechanical forces influence the signaling pathways of immunoreceptors is essential for advancing research in immunology and immunotherapy. Despite in vitro evidence of endogenous forces exerted by immune cells on immunoreceptors, in vivo measurement has been challenging due to technological limitations. Here, we present a novel technology platform based on synthetic Notch (SynNotch) circuits, enabling in vivo reporting of cell-generated forces on specific receptors. Our platform utilizes the mechano-sensitive properties of the Notch receptor, re-engineering it by replacing its ligand-binding domain with a single-chain variable fragment (scFv) of an antibody targeting the receptor of interest. The SynNotch receptor\u0027s activation induces the expression of a reporter gene. By adoptively transferring receiver cells expressing SynNotch into animals, we can measure the forces exerted by sender cells on the target receptor in vivo. We validated this platform using T cells as receiver cells and B cells as sender cells, with CD40 as the target receptor. Our results showed that B cells exert forces on CD40-SynNotch bonds, leading to the activation of SynNotch at forces around 2.4 pN per bond, increasing to a plateau at approximately 6.4 pN per bond. This mechanotransduction significantly influenced B cell signaling. This technology provides a powerful tool for investigating receptor-mediated mechanosensing and mechanotransduction in various biological contexts.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cem\u003EThe Immunoengineering Training Seminar Series is supported by the NIH T32 Research Training Program in Immunoengineering and housed within the\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/em\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/immunoengineering.gatech.edu\/\u0022\u003E\u003Cem\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ECenter for Immunoengineering at Georgia Tech\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/em\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cem\u003E.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/em\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ETwo Research Presentations - Raphaelle Dodart, Ph.D. Student, David Ku, Advisor and Menglan Li, Georgia Tech\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Two Research Presentations - Raphaelle Dodart, Ph.D. Student, David Ku, Advisor and Menglan Li, Georgia Tech "}],"uid":"27195","created_gmt":"2026-09-02 15:53:12","changed_gmt":"2026-09-08 20:08:11","author":"Colly Mitchell","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-09-18T13:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2026-09-18T14:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-09-18T14:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-09-18 17:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-09-18 18:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-09-18 18:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Engineered Biosystems Building (EBB) - CHOA Seminar Room, 950 Atlantic Drive NW, Atlanta, GA 30332","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"1292","name":"Parker H.

Our team has been studying fungi for drug leads effective in the fight against cancer, with an emphasis on ovarian cancer, and this presentation will peer into two different chapters of that ongoing story. The verticillins are potent, cytotoxic leads, first discovered over 50 years ago. Our emphasis has been on amplifying their supply, generating semisynthetic analogues, understanding their mechanism of action, and optimizing their delivery. In contrast, wheldone is a molecule that we first described recently. Interestingly, it is only biosynthesized via the antagonism of two fungi fighting for limited resources in co-culture. We\u2019ve spent considerable effort developing ways to supply this compound on a larger scale, as the scale up of fungal co-cultures is not discussed in the literature. We\u2019ve also probed its mode of action and are starting to generate semisynthetic analogues. In sum total, this presentation will provide a glimpse into how natural products drug discovery from fungi is carried out in the modern research setting.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio:\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ENicholas Oberlies received his B.S. in Chemistry from Miami University (Oxford, Ohio) in 1992 and his Ph.D. in Medicinal Chemistry and Pharmacognosy from Purdue University (West Lafayette, Indiana) in 1997, where he studied under Professor Jerry L.

He then spent a year as a postdoctoral chemist at American Cyanamid (Princeton, New Jersey), where he investigated leads with insecticidal, herbicidal, and fungicidal properties from natural sources.

This presentation will discuss our recent eForts in post-polymerization modification, monomer design, and methods development towards achieving this goal.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio:\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAaron earned a B.S. degree in Chemistry in 2012 from the University of Nevada, Reno prior to attending the University of Texas at Austin, where he completed a PhD in Chemistry in 2016.

We investigate how sensory representations and microcircuits in the cerebral cortex evolve over time and how they are influenced by experience of the world. Since hearing is a crucial sense for communication in both humans and animals, we focus on the auditory system. We utilize a variety of approaches from vivo 2-photon imaging to in vitro electrophysiology. Recent studies from our lab have uncovered insights into the early development and experience-driven plasticity of the auditory cortex pointing to a joint role of sensory experience and self-generated actions in early development.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe classical view is that the brain\u2019s ability to process sounds is established during early development, refined through experience during a postnatal \u201ccritical period,\u201d and further shaped by lifelong learning. Our findings reveal that the early developing cortex contains specialized circuits formed by subplate neurons. Functionally, we find that subplate neurons contain an early protomap of cortical organization and that these neurons provide an early substrate for experience-dependent changes, even before the traditional \u201ccritical period.\u201d Moreover, our recent work indicate that self-generated actions contribute to the cortical neuronal activity in early development.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThus, our results paint a more nuanced picture, suggesting that both sensory experiences and self-generated actions during early development, before the critical period, can have influences on brain function.

Dysregulated intestinal enzyme activities give rise to a broad range of GI pathologies and can therefore serve as functional biomarkers of disease. However, current strategies for enzyme activity measurements often rely on invasive endoscopy to biopsy intestinal tissue samples for activity measurements in the clinical lab. As an alternative to endscopy, we have developed a new Volatile-releasing Activity-based Probe (VAPR) platform that enables remote sensing of pathology-causing intestinal enzyme activities via breath testing. The platform comprises ingestible sugar-based probes that sense and produce breath signals for specific intestinal glycosidase activities. In this talk, Leslie Chan will discuss the design and application of the probes for inflammatory bowel disease and for detecting harmful drug-metabolizing enzyme activity from the gut microbiome.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Ch2\u003EBio:\u003C\/h2\u003E\u003Cp\u003ELeslie Chan\u2019s lab focuses on the development of bioresponsive nanomaterials that are delivered in vivo to harness biochemical cues in diseased tissue as triggers for disease readouts or site-specific therapeutic activity.

Their goal is to develop solutions that can be readily translated at the point of care, for at-home use, or deployed for infectious disease surveillance to promote public health. To achieve this, they integrate nanomaterial design, chemical biology, and medicine and leverage collaborations with clinicians, immunologists, microbiologists, and other engineers.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Ch2\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EIngestible Molecular Probes for Gastrointestinal Disease\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/h2\u003E\u003Cp\u003EPresented by: Leslie Chan, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, Wallace H.

He conducted postdoctoral work at the University of California, Los Angeles as a Helen Hay Whitney Fellow in the lab of Dr. Larry Zipursky. His research focuses on the regulation of gene expression in developing nervous systems across space and time.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAnimal brains consist of a vast number of neurons (~100 billion in humans, ~100 million in mice), and thousands of neuron-types. These neurons generated at different times and locations in the developing brain come together in precise ways to form specific connections (~100 trillion connections in the human brain). Even subtle defects in wiring are associated with conditions such as autism, schizophrenia and epilepsy. How does biology ensure the assembly of such a complex structure? A key piece of this puzzle is ensuring that the right set of genes are expressed at the right time and in the right place. The Jain lab is trying to address the following questions: 1) How are the timing and cell-type specificity of gene expression controlled in developing neurons to ensure proper circuit formation? 2) How are these mechanisms perturbed in neurodevelopmental disorders? To address these questions, the lab applies single-cell genomics, genetics and molecular biology approaches in the developing mouse and fruit fly visual systems.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cem\u003EThe \u003C\/em\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/sites.gatech.edu\/soda\/\u0022\u003E\u003Cem\u003ESpatial Omics and Data Analytics (SODA) Center\u003C\/em\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cem\u003E meets monthly for networking, information transfer, and active partnership formation.

Archaea and bacteria oxidize most of the methane that diffuses upward from vast reservoirs beneath the seafloor before it can reach the atmosphere. In this seminar, I will present recent findings from our lab on the role of microbes and their proteins on methane and methanol cycling in three habitats: under the seafloor, in a deep brine pool, and in the surface ocean. First, I will highlight our discovery of methane hydrate binding proteins made by subseafloor bacteria, and how collaboration with GT biochemists enabled characterization of these novel proteins that are only found in bacteria that inhabit deep seafloor sediments rich in methane. Second, I will present our recent study of marine archaea that prevent leakage of methane out of a deep anoxic salt pond on the seafloor of the Gulf of Mexico. Third, I will highlight our discovery of Methylaequorales, an uncultivated order of alphaproteobacteria that are highly active in the surface ocean and use lanthanide-requiring enzymes to grow on methanol. Despite recent progress, we have barely scratched the surface of knowledge of the biochemical repertoire of microbial proteins, particularly those from habitats rarely visited by humans, and the need for fundamental science to uncover the chemical potential of environmental microbes is stronger than ever.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ESchool of Chemistry \u0026amp; Biochemistry - Seminar Series\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"School of Chemistry \u0026 Biochemistry - Seminar Series"}],"uid":"35342","created_gmt":"2026-07-27 15:57:10","changed_gmt":"2026-07-27 16:01:14","author":"mcurtis41","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-09-17T15:30:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2026-09-17T16:30:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-09-17T16:30:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-09-17 19:30:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-09-17 20:30:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-09-17 20:30:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"EBB Kron 1005","extras":[],"hg_media":{"680676":{"id":"680676","type":"image","title":"Prof.-Jennifer-Glass---2-.jpg","body":null,"created":"1785167839","gmt_created":"2026-07-27 15:57:19","changed":"1785167839","gmt_changed":"2026-07-27 15:57:19","alt":"J Glass","file":{"fid":"264967","name":"Prof.-Jennifer-Glass---2-.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/2026\/07\/27\/Prof.-Jennifer-Glass---2-.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/2026\/07\/27\/Prof.-Jennifer-Glass---2-.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":179011,"path_740":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/2026\/07\/27\/Prof.-Jennifer-Glass---2-.jpg?itok=ZlQseyPw"}}},"media_ids":["680676"],"groups":[{"id":"85951","name":"School of Chemistry and Biochemistry"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1795","name":"Seminar\/Lecture\/Colloquium"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78761","name":"Faculty\/Staff"},{"id":"177814","name":"Postdoc"},{"id":"174045","name":"Graduate students"},{"id":"78751","name":"Undergraduate students"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EHost: Neha Garg\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"691256":{"#nid":"691256","#data":{"type":"event","title":"Georgia CTSA - Team Science Skill Series","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/www.trumba.com\/eareg.aspx?ea=Rsvp\u0026amp;invite=09hn8089t0v8dkyjwpxuwsztsh66763ajj31rav20k2svny5c5rv\u0022\u003ERegister HERE\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/sciences.ucf.edu\/psychology\/person\/shawn-burke\/\u0022\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EC.

A free evidence-based personalized conflict styles report will be available to each attendee after taking the 5-minute assessment at ITPmetrics.com.

In particular, we want to understand the dynamical and mechanistic parameters that shape the evolution of new enzyme functions, and to then harness these to engineer new enzymes with tailored physiochemical properties. To achieve this, we combine methodology development with applications to real world systems, in close collaboration with experimental groups across the world. Examples of recent and ongoing methodology development include replica exchange empirical valence bond simulations to describe chemical reactivity, and machine learning tools to design new enzymes.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EMore recently, we are working on natural language models to predict protein structure and activity. We combine these tools with a range of enhanced sampling approaches, structural bioinformatics tools and EVB and QM\/MM tools to describe conformational dynamics and chemical reactivity, with applications to biomedically important enzymes such as protein tyrosine phosphatases, or quorum-quenching lactonases that can be used to disrupt bacterial communication. We are also particularly interested in the modular evolution of new protein scaffolds with catalytic function, as well as the incorporation of non-canonical amino acids into industrially relevant enzymes for design purposes.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EFinally, enzymes are chemical catalysts, and to understand their biological function it is important to understand the intrinsic chemistry they catalyze.

These responses include thrombosis (\u201cclotting\u201d), inflammation, immune responses, matrix remodeling, angiogenesis, wound healing; i.e., all aspects of a host response to an implanted material or device. The material is an agonist, much like small molecule drugs; however, the materials are 3-dimensional objects acting across an interface so that the mechanism of action is more complex and our understanding of what is happening is more rudimentary than it is for small molecules. Hence, our challenge is to translate what is known about biological mechanisms with small molecule agonists into a picture of what is occurring with the biomaterial. Depending on the problem, the lab synthesises new polymers, formulates existing polymers into novel forms, assesses surface chemistry and structure, studies cell-material interactions in cell culture and\/or conducts in vivo experiments in animals (typically mice and rats). Most of the responses of interest are only evident in vivo and so the in vivo studies are typically key in many projects at the Masters and Ph.D. levels.

In the context of tolerance, induction of regulatory T cells is critical, and antigen specificity can arise from exogenously administered antigens in the form of an inverse vaccine or from endogenous antigens in a site of inflammation. In either case, we explore methods to induce or deliver cytokines to regions of lymph nodes where immunity develops and is regulated. In recent work in allergic asthma, we developed an approach employing glycosylated polymers to deliver allergic antigens and induce regulatory cytokine expression to re-bias immunity back to tolerance, inducing allergen-specific regulatory T cells and thus preventing asthmatic responses to pulmonary antigen challenge. In work in an experimental model of autoimmune neuroinflammation, we are developing an approach to deliver the tolerogenic cytokine IL-10 to all the secondary lymphoid organs of the body from a simple subcutaneous administration. Here, antigen specific Tregs were developed in response to myelin antigens that drain from the inflammation site. In the context of aggression, we have developed an approach to deposit inflammatory cytokines in the tumor microenvironment to tip the balance between cytotoxic T lymphocytes and Tregs, whether by agonizing innate immune cells such as macrophages and dendritic cells or adaptive immune cells, in particular T cells. With regard to antigens in mounting immune aggression, we have developed cysteine-reactive polymers that bind in situ to the surfaces of tumor cells to direct the adduct to antigen-presenting cells along with polymer-conjugated adjuvant moieties to induce an anti-tumoral vaccine response. Thus, in both contexts, biological functionality can be engineered to guide immunity toward tolerance in inflammation, allergy and autoimmunity and toward aggression in cancer.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBIO\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EJeffrey Hubbell is a pioneer in the field of immuno-modulatory materials whose research spans biology, chemistry, and engineering to generate novel solutions to common health problems. His work focuses on using biomaterials and engineered proteins to enhance the body\u2019s own immune system to fight inflammatory and autoimmune disorders, allergies, and disease states like cancers. With more than 400 papers and 100 issued US patents, Hubbell uses biomaterials and protein engineering approaches to investigate topics in regenerative medicine and immunotherapeutics. In regenerative medicine, he develops both materials and protein therapeutics to address issues such as chronic wound healing in diabetes and bone repair after trauma. In immunotherapeutics, he pursues nanomaterials in vaccination for infectious disease and cancer as well as targeted therapy with RNA, protein-material conjugates for inverse vaccines to induce antigen-specific tolerance in autoimmunity and allergy, and in protein therapy to tip immune balances toward aggression in immuno-oncology and toward tolerance in inflammatory disease.
