Congrats to all the 2023 graduates at @UMassChan. It was an absolute honor to be on stage hooding PhDs when it wasn’t that long ago that I crossed that stage. #katiecouric giving the commencement address was pretty cool too

So fun giving the commencement address at ⁦@UMassChan⁩ (med school) celebrating these impressive doctors, nurses & scientists! (You may call me “Dr. Katie.”) Thanks for the feedback—my speech will be in Wake-Up Call tomorrow! Sign up at Katiecouric.com 🎓🩻🩺🥼

It was great talking with Terry @UMassChan about the early days of gene therapy and his work with AAV-based vector systems. It was also nice to learn more about his very successful academic career, his many contributions to @ASGCTherapy and what he enjoys in his spare time.

Hear Terry Flotte, MD, on ASGCT's Giants of Gene Therapy #podcast TMRW! He discussed #AAV vectors, past & future of #genetherapy + his scientific journey with ASGCT President @HPKiem, MD, PhD. Preview Dr. Flotte on gene therapy in 10 yrs below & subscribe asgct.org/giants-of-gene…

Lupus has a broad range of causes and symptoms. Research Jillian Richmond, PhD, is doing with @LupusResearch funding could provide new information about how lupus-causing immune cells can be targeted to prevent or slow #lupus: bit.ly/3mMFJ5H @tcelltracker @UMassLupus

Congrats to our student Moti and our Keeler lab alum, Ishani, in the publication of their paper "Immunogenicity of Recombinant Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) Vectors for Gene Transfer" in BioDrugs. Check it out on pubmed now! pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36862289/ @mt_arjomandi @dasgupta_ishani


Our colleagues in the Gene Therapy Center are doing amazing work!

UMass Chan researchers have reached a proof-of-concept milestone in developing a vector to deliver gene replacement therapy in mice models with Cockayne syndrome, giving hope to parents of children with the fatal neurodegenerative disease. bit.ly/3jcIN9o @RiaanResearch



A wonderfully written spotlight on our graduate student, Ashley!

Originally planning to become a physician, PhD student Ashley Harkins fell in love with bench science. Harkins, a hospital volunteer since high school, is working to discover novel immunotherapies to conquer #ALS: bit.ly/3IvPwFD #StudentSpotlight #WhyUMassChan @KeelerLab

Thanks @acadia_k for always making the Keeler Lab festive!

The @KeelerLab looks festive year-round thanks to research associate Acadia Kopec. @acadia_k has put Travis the Treg-osaurus (named after regulatory T-cells) and Elisa (named after the ELISA assay) in holiday sweaters, Valentine’s Day attire and more! #LabMascot
