Ph.D. Research Proposal - Evan Marsh

Please join us for the following Biomedical Engineering Graduate Student Presentation: Ph.D. Research Proposal DEVELOPMENT OF A POINT-OF-CARE DIAGNOSTIC ASSAY FOR EOSINOPHILIC CHRONIC RHINOSINUSITIS Monday, November 2, 2026 at 12:30 PM SCMI 2nd Floor Conference Center Zoom Meeting ID: 863 7040 7398 ~ Passcode: 190977 Presenter: Evan Marsh Advisor: Dr. Abigail Pulsipher Eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (eCRS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the paranasal sinuses characterized by tissue eosinophilia and associated with substantial disease burden, recurrent surgery, and variable responses to corticosteroid and biologic therapies. Current classification commonly relies on histopathologic quantification of eosinophils in surgically obtained sinonasal tissue, requiring invasive sampling, centralized pathology infrastructure, and specialist interpretation. Because surgical tissue sampling is not suitable for repeated routine monitoring, and systemic biomarkers may not reliably reflect local sinonasal… Alternate Location: Zoom Meeting ID: 863 7040 7398 ~ Passcode: 190977.

Biomedical Engineering Seminar - Dr. Bumsoo Han

BIOENGINEERING ELEVATED TALK, CELEBRATING 50 YEARS OF BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING AT THE UNIVERSITY OF UTAH, "Engineering the Tumor Microenvironment: Transport, Coagulation, and Therapeutic Reprogramming in Pancreatic Cancer"   Dr. Bumsoo Han, Professor, Mechanical Science and Engineering, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign In person in SMBB 2650! Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains one of the most lethal malignancies, characterized by a dense stromal microenvironment that promotes tumor progression, restricts therapeutic transport, and contributes to treatment resistance. Despite extensive efforts to target the tumor stroma, clinical translation has been challenging, partly because stromal components can exert both tumor-promoting and tumor-restraining functions. These challenges motivate a fundamental question: "How do transport processes govern the interactions between physical tissue architecture, molecular signaling, and disease progression?" Our research addresses this question by… Event Categories: Seminars. Campus Locations: Sorenson Molecular Biotechnology Building - James LeVoy (SMBB). Room Name/Number: SMBB 2650.

Biomedical Engineering Seminar - Dr. Robin Shaw

BIOENGINEERING ELEVATED TALK, CELEBRATING 50 YEARS OF BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING AT THE UNIVERSITY OF UTAH, "Protein Trafficking and its Therapeutic Opportunities"   Dr. Robin Shaw, Professor, Cardiovascular Medicine; Director, Nora Eccles Harrison Cardiovascular Research and Training Institute (CVRTI); University of Utah In person in SMBB 2650! Protein trafficking is a fundamental determinant of cardiomyocyte architecture, signaling, and stress adaptation, and its disruption contributes directly to heart failure and arrhythmia. This presentation will describe the discovery of cardiac bridging integrator 1 (cBIN1) and the internally translated connexin 43 isoform GJA1-20k, two cardiac proteins that organize distinct but complementary trafficking pathways. cBIN1 sculpts membrane microdomains that coordinate calcium-handling and receptor signaling machinery, whereas GJA1-20k directs microtubule-dependent delivery of connexin 43 and promotes protective mitochondrial remodeling during cellular stress.
