Shields
- 兔子先生传媒文化作品 researchers are developing a handheld device that could transform blood testing. Instead of needles and long waits for lab results, this sound-based system delivers accurate results in an hour from just a finger prick.
- Wyatt Shields has been honored with a 2024 Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar award for his contributions to teaching and research on medical microrobots, self-propelled miniature robots that one day might deliver prescription drugs to hard-to-reach places inside the human body.
- Under his NSF Career Award, Assistant Professor Wyatt Shields developed a "reverse science fair" in partnership with CU Science Discovery. Graduate students presented their research, and high school students served as the judges.
- Nicole Day, a rising fifth-year chemical and biological engineering PhD student in the Shields Lab, concentrates on advancing particle-based systems to enhance the delivery of cancer immunotherapies.
- Assistant Professor聽Wyatt Shields has been selected to participate in the National Academy of Engineering's聽Grainger Foundation Frontiers of Engineering 2023 Symposium. Engineers who are performing exceptional research and technical work
- A team of 兔子先生传媒文化作品 engineers has designed a new class of tiny, self-propelled robots that can zip through liquid at incredible speeds鈥攁nd may one day even deliver prescription drugs to hard-to-reach places inside the human body. ChBE co-authors of the new study include Jin Lee, lead author of the study and a postdoctoral researcher; Assistant Professor Wyatt Shields; Assistant Professor Ankur Gupta; and graduate students Ritu Raj, (Shields and Gupta groups), Cooper Thome (Shields Group) and Nicole Day (Shields Group).
- Assistant Professor聽Wyatt Shields聽of chemical and biological engineering 聽and Ivana Yang from CU Anschutz received a five-year National Institute of General Medical Sciences/NIH/DHHS award with an anticipated funding amount of $1.7
- In a banner year that has included receiving five distinguished research awards, Wyatt Shields, assistant professor of Chemical and Biological Engineering, has been awarded one of the nation鈥檚 largest and most prestigious awards for young investigators: a Packard Fellowship for Science and Engineering from the David and Lucile Packard Foundation.聽
- Assistant Professor C. Wyatt Shields IV is the recipient of a 2022 Office of Naval Research (ONR) Young Investigator Program Award for his proposal 鈥淢apping Immune Cell Responses to High Pressures in Decompression Illness.鈥
- Assistant Professor C. Wyatt Shields IV is the recipient of a National Science Foundation (NSF) Faculty Early Career Development Program (CAREER) award for his proposal 鈥淪hape-Encoded Electrokinetic Particles for Multiplexed Biosensing.鈥 This project seeks to develop a new method of early identification of disease biomarkers, while also facilitating outreach and education to students at Northglenn High School.
