Lisa Volpatti is an Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering and Chemical & Biological Engineering at Northwestern University. Her research focuses on developing targeted immunotherapies that direct therapeutic activity to specific cells or organs to improve efficacy and reduce off-target effects. Her lab integrates biomaterials design with protein and molecular engineering to control immune responses in vivo. She completed postdoctoral training in immunoengineering at the University of Chicago, earned her PhD in chemical engineering from MIT, and received her master’s degree in chemistry from the University of Cambridge. She is a recent recipient of the Hartwell Individual Biomedical Research Award and the PhRMA Foundation Faculty Starter Grant in Drug Delivery.
