Welcome to the Pratt Laboratory
We are an engineering-driven cancer research laboratory. Our mission is the design of liquid biopsy assays for non-invasive cancer monitoring. We work at the interface of engineering, chemical biology, and oncology.
Join the Team
Prof. Pratt gave an invited talk at the Department of Developmental, Molecular and Chemical Biology and Program in Genetics, Molecular and Cell Biology joint seminar series. Her talk was entitled “Integrating Liquid Biopsy and Multimodal Technologies for Cancer Monitoring.
Prof. Pratt gave an invited seminar entitled “Integrating Liquid Biopsy and Multimodal Technologies for Cancer Monitoring” at Jefferson’s Health Sidney Kimmel Cancer center. She was invited and hosted by Dr. Terry Hyslop
The following projects will be presented during the 2023 BMES Annual Meeting, held October 11th - 14th in Seattle, WA: “Optimization and Expansion of Digital PCR Multiplexing for Rare Mutation Detection” presented by Colin Skeen in the Imaging Strategies in Cancer Detection, Diagnosis, and Prognosis session on October 13th from 8:30-8:45 AM.
Congratulations to Hanhminh Nguyen on receiving funding for Fall semester from the Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program!
We are very excited to extend a warm congratulations and welcome to our newest undergraduate researcher, Terry Chen. Terry was awarded an Undergraduate Research Program grant through BU STEM Pathways. He is currently in his sophomore year in the BU BME program.
