Levy CIMAR Science Lunch

Please join us in person or on Zoom for the March 2023 Levy CIMAR Science Lunch seminar from Bryan Lenneman, Ph.D., a Research Fellow at Massachusetts General Hospital. Dr. Lenneman will present on “Engineering Phages as Novel Antimicrobials Targeting Gram-Negative Pathogens.”

Dr. Lenneman’s research interests include utilizing synthetic biology to develop novel therapeutics against diseases associated with dysbiosis of the human gut microbial community. His work focuses on engineering bacteriophages as an alternative to conventional antibiotics for the removal of pathogenic bacteria and on developing probiotic bacteria as therapeutic additives to the gut microbiome.

Dr. Lenneman is a Research Fellow in MGH’s Christina Faherty Lab and was previously a Postdoctoral Associate in the Timothy Lu lab at MIT from 2019-2022. He obtained his Ph.D. in Genetics, Genomics, and Systems Biology at The University of Chicago in 2019.

Time: 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

Please join us on Thursday, April 27th, at noon for a seminar from Sankha (Bobby) Basu, MD, PhD, Director of Clinical Microbiology at Tufts Medical Center. Dr. Basu’s research interests include the development of novel mass spectrometry approaches, including diagnostic applications in infectious disease.

Dr. Basu earned his MD and PhD from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, and completed both his clinical pathology residency and microbiology fellowship at Brigham and Women’s Hospital.

Levy CIMAR Science Lunch

We are pleased to welcome Massachusetts General Hospital’s Roby Bhattacharyya, MD, PhD, to present for our May 25th Levy CIMAR Science Lunch, our last seminar of the ’22-’23 season! Dr. Bhattacharyya is an Assistant Professor in the Infectious Diseases Division at MGH as well as an Associate Member of the Broad Institute and an Assistant Professor at Harvard Medical School. He will present on “Transcriptional Profiling for Infectious Disease Diagnostics and Discovery” at 12 noon both in-person and via Zoom.

Dr. Bhattacharyya maintains a lab at the Broad where he and his team pursue basic and translational research on pathogenic microbes, with a particular focus on antimicrobial resistance and transcriptional responses to antibiotic exposure, and on characterizing their impact on infected patients, including the immune responses elicited upon systemic infection such as sepsis or COVID-19.
