We are excited to once again partner with Liftoff PGH to kick off Generation Fempreneur. Throughout the month of December, Liftoff PGH is activating the leading disruptors across Pittsburgh’s technology, health, education and entrepreneurship sectors for our region's first virtual healthcare innovation summit.

Today, we welcome Dr. Elizabeth Wayne, Assistant Professor - Carnegie Mellon University, to talk about her research on immunoengineering. 

In June, Elizabeth was awarded NSF funding to apply her research in immunoengineering to the COVID-19 pandemic and she will provide an update as part of the discussion. Elizabeth will also detail her views about the role of education in providing opportunities to people from disadvantaged backgrounds. Plus, learn more about her "PhDivas" podcast and her advice for young women pursuing careers in science.
