Proud of everyone involved! #UCSFProud #bioengineering

ICYMI: UCSF Bioengineering & Therapeutic Sciences Dr Shuvo Roy talking today American Society of Nephrology #KidneyWk on ‘Progress towards implantable bioartificial kidneys.’ He will also be presenting at the KidneyX Innovation showcase on the implanted hemodialysis product concept on Saturday.

So proud of our own! Shuvo Roy #Kidneywk #kidneyx

Excited to find team members to work on developing dynamical, quantitative models of innate immune responses! Hiring a postdoctoral scholar with expertise in mathematical and computational modeling. See the link to apply. #postdocposition #modeling #UCSF opportunities.ucsf.edu/content/postdo…

In-center #hemodialysis, which is what most people receive, is a poor substitute for living kidneys, says UCSF’s Shuvo Roy, technical director of the The Kidney Project, which is working to bring an implantable bioartificial kidney to patients. ucsfh.org/3J2VEUf #WorldKidneyDay

*Preprint Alert* This one’s in a new area for the lab: phage editing! We're using retrons to produce recombineering donors ~inside~ bacterial hosts. A wild-type phage infects the host and an edited phage comes out. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Tomorrow I will visit the The White House with SHPE National to talk with the White House Office of Public Engagement about #latinos in #STEM here are my talking points 1/8 UC San Francisco Health Innovation via Engineering (HIVE) UCSF Department of Orthopaedic Surgery @UCSFmskcenter UCSF Bioengineering & Therapeutic Sciences Berkeley Bioengineer @Hes_ucberkeley Berkeley Engineering

We are beyond excited to have you join the team 🥳

Had a great time reconnecting with colleagues Shuvo Roy and Deanna Kroetz from UCSF Bioengineering & Therapeutic Sciences at commencement 2023 #ucsfgrads

Today the Kidney Project was awarded a $1 million prize from KidneyX for advancing its prototype bioartificial kidney toward a full-sized, human scale, with manufacturing and ultimately clinical trials on the horizon. Congrats to the entire team! pharmacy.ucsf.edu/news/2023/06/s…
