SUMMARY:Chemical Engineering Spring Seminar Series: Ke Zhang
DESCRIPTION:Life in a tight spot: Spying on bacteria in complex spaces \nLocation: 135 Shillman Hall \nAbstract: Nucleic acids are programmable biomolecules that hold great promises as a therapeutic. However\, with over 40 years of development\, only a handful of nucleic acid drugs ever reached the market. The lack of greater success is in part due to the poor biopharmaceutical properties of naked nucleic acids\, which require extensive chemical modification and/or the use of a carrier system. This presentation focuses on the development of a bottlebrush polymer system for improving the delivery of oligonucleotide-based genetic medicine. Termed Brushield (brush + shield)\, the delivery technology relies upon the three-dimensional arrangement of biologically benign polymer chains to enhance the pharmacological properties of the nucleic acids. The polymer provides the conjugated oligonucleotide steric selectivity towards complementary strands vs. proteins\, which allows it to bypass many of the side effects associated with protein-DNA interactions and achieve bioactivity in a number of disease models. \n\n Dr. Ke Zhang obtained his BS degree in 2005 in Applied Chemistry from Nanjing University of Technology\, China. He then studied polymer chemistry with Prof. Karen Wooley at Washington University in St. Louis\, focusing on shell-crosslinked knedel-like nanoparticles and gene delivery\, obtaining a PhD degree in Chemistry in 2009. Thereafter\, Dr. Zhang was a postdoctoral fellow in the laboratory of Prof. Chad Mirkin at Northwestern University to develop hollow spherical nucleic acids\, a carrier-free platform for gene regulation. In 2012\, Dr. Zhang joined Northeastern University as an Assistant Professor of Chemistry and was promoted to Associate in 2017 and to Full in 2022. His current research includes the design and synthesis of unique polymer superstructures\, nucleic acid-polymer conjugates\, and genetic nanomedicine. Dr. Zhang was recognized as a Kabiller Rising Star in Nanomedicine (2023)\, a Pioneering Investigator by Polymer Chemistry (2021)\, Emerging Investigator by Journal of Materials Chemistry B (2020)\, ACS PMSE Young Investigator (2018)\, Nano Research Young Innovator (2017)\, ACS PRF Doctoral New Investigator (2014)\, and by an NSF CAREER award (2014).

SUMMARY:Women in Engineering Panel Discussion - Virtual
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a one-hour virtual panel discussion during National Engineers Week\, hosted by Sarah Ostadabbas\, associate professor of electrical and computer engineering and director of the Women in Engineering program at Northeastern. Following last year’s successful focus on career challenges and helpful resources\, this year’s panel will explore the personal and professional experiences of women in engineering more deeply. \nThe panel will feature a female faculty and students from various engineering disciplines and career stages—from undergraduates to postdocs. This year\, we’re excited to include participants from multiple campuses\, enhancing the variety of perspectives shared. See their bios on our official event page. \nThe discussion will center around three pivotal questions: \n\nPersonal Journey in Engineering: What inspired you to choose your discipline within engineering\, and what impact do you believe it has?\nCareer Crossroads: Could you share a pivotal moment when you faced a significant career decision? How did you approach this challenge\, and what resources were most helpful?\nVision for Growth: How do you envision growth in your engineering career\, and what steps are you taking to realize your future goals?\n\nRegistration is required to join this enlightening conversation\, which promises to inspire and inform attendees.
