Nanotechnology is at the forefront of fighting COVID. Lipid nanoparticles are essential components of mRNA vaccines. Nanomaterials are enabling improved detection techniques, and novel therapies.
At this symposium, leading academic and industrial researchers will present pathbreaking nanotechnology-based work focused on addressing the threat of COVID-19. Topics will include nanotechnology to manufacture COVID mRNA vaccines, create novel nanomaterial decoy therapies, enhance molecular detection of viruses, and simulate nanostructured COVID proteins. The event will provide opportunities for attendees to network and actively engage with the speakers. Speakers include: Professor Liangfang Zhang, Joan and Irwin Jacobs Chancellor’s Endowed Chair Professor, Department of Nanoengineering, UCSD Professor Michael Strano, Carbon P. Dubbs Professor of Chemical Engineering, MIT Dr. Arvind Ramanathan, Computational biologist in the Data Science and Learning Division at Argonne National Laboratory Dr. Francie Barron, VP Innovation Partnerships, Cardea Bio Inc Erica Weiskircher-Hildebrandt, Director, Business Development and Field Marketing – Formulation and Drug Delivery at MilliporeSigma |
