Bioengineering graduate student Ryan Jamieson, PhD’23, received the 2023 Outstanding Graduate Student Award for Research, which recognizes those that have shown an exceptional ability to conduct high-level research and make contributions to the scholarly literature in their fields.
Jamieson conducts pioneering research into developing a potential therapy for asthma that targets collagen deposition in asthmatic airways. To this end, Jamieson has devised a method to overcome the force-dependent inhibition of collagenase enzyme and deciphered the underlying mechanisms. His work was selected by the American Physiological Society for APS Select, a collection of the best papers in physiology.
