Dr. Yee earned his undergraduate Credentials from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute before receiving his doctorate from Rice University. His eventual goal is to operate an independent research laboratory in the field of bioengineering with a focus on…
Per Dr. Ivanciu, the JGP award was the starting point of her career in the field of hemophilia. By receiving this award, she was able to advance her understanding of bleeding disorders and gained the necessary experience in state-of-the-art…
The goal of Dr. Chen's research is to examine a method for selectively expanding hematopoietic stem cells expressing the factor VIII transgene. She will also examine the immune consequences of this approach, based on the idea that gene transfer in…
In the long-term, Dr. Ivanciu's goals include the establishment of an independent research laboratory to focus on better understanding the pathological consequences of disruptions in the hemostatic balance. She believes that, as a past JGP Fellow,…
Dr. Noh's research will utilize induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) and manipulate them in vitro to expand production of megakaryocytes and platelets that express therapeutic proteins, including FVIII. The project will further determine whether…
Dr. Chappell's research project will develop a model for characterizing bleeding in hemophilia and particularly in joints. Using mouse models of hematoma formation and knee joint bleeding, Dr. Chappell will use 3D fluorescent imaging technology in "…
Per Dr. Fu, the JGP provided her with the opportunity to work on hemophilia, as well as von Willebrand disease. After the completion of her JGP project, Dr. Fu remained in the bleeding disorder field.
Dr. Laura Sommerville graduated cum laude from Messiah College and then obtained her MS and PhD degrees in cellular and molecular biology from Temple University. Her graduate work and doctoral dissertation produced several awards and publications in…
Dr. Tine Wyseure obtained her Master’s degree in Drug Discovery and Development, and earned her Ph.D. in Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of Leuven, Belgium. Since 2015, she has been a research associate in the lab of Dr. Laurent Mosnier at…
Per Dr. Kumar, the JGP Fellowship has enabled him to test his ideas related to factor V biology. It has facilitated his scientific training to become increasingly independent in the planning and execution of his research. Important to note, findings…
