Rylee passes her Qualifying Exam!

This spring, Rylee Newport passed her qualifying exam by presenting her thesis proposal, titled “Tunable Biomaterials for Investigating NK cell Migration Parameters in Solid Tumors.” Many thanks to her committee members, Dr. Edward Phelps, Dr. Carlos Rinaldi-Ramos, Dr. Cherie Stabler, and Dr. Ryan Thomas for their support and feedback. As Rylee progresses with her research, she will focus on furthering our knowledge of extracellular matrix components and mechanical properties influencing NK cell migration.

Congratulations to Rylee for completing this milestone!
