Congratulations to Jaime Giraldo on successful completion of his Ph.D! His thesis, entitled “PEGylation and Bioactive Modification of Pancreatic Islet Surfaces to Enhance Graft Survival in Cell Therapy for Type I Diabetes”, explored the PEGylation of islets to complement short-course immunotherapy in preclinical models, as well as the conjugation of bioactive motifs for directing immunological responses. Jaime wins the award for the longest PhD title in the lab 🙂 Now he is off to change the world!
