Amanda X. Chen obtained her PhD in Biological Engineering from MIT in 2020. While there, she worked on "microlivers," which could enable next-generation cell therapies that could help, or maybe even replace, organ transplants for end-stage diseases. She is now a scientist at a Cambridge startup called Satellite Bio.

Amanda was also recognized by the 2021 Forbes 30 Under 30 Science list for her work.
