EVIT Seminar Series
The Extracellular Vesicle Imaging and Therapy (EVIT) working group at the Beckman Institute is pleased to announce the revitalization of the EVIT Seminar Series, hosted in collaboration with the Mayo Clinic. This partnership aims to foster cross-institutional dialogue and bring fresh, innovative perspectives to the EV research community, bridging engineering, technology, and fundamental biology.
Please join us for the first seminar of the fall semester
About the Speaker:
Dr. Clayton Deighan has worked in the field of EV analysis for the past decade following his PhD at Ohio State University. He has held customer-facing roles at Malvern Instruments and NanoView Biosciences focusing on NTA and SP-IRIS analysis, and currently leads the US team at NanoFCM, makers of nano flow cytometry devices commonly used for EV analysis.
Details on future seminars in the series will be shared in the coming weeks.
