This session in our Professional Speaker Series explores entrepreneurship, MedTech, and innovation with industry leaders. We are excited to host Dr. Erika Cyphert, an Assistant Professor in the Shu Chien Gene Lay Department of Bioengineering at UCSD, specializing in microbial therapeutics and drug delivery. Dr. Cyphert’s research focuses on leveraging commensal microbes to develop targeted therapies for diseases linked to the microbiome, including GI disorders, infectious diseases, and cancer. Her team integrates polymer chemistry, bioinformatics, and multi-omics approaches to engineer responsive drug delivery systems. She will share insights into the future of microbial therapeutics, bioengineering’s role in healthcare innovation, and entrepreneurial pathways that translate research into real-world impact. This event fosters interdisciplinary collaboration and aligns with HealthLink’s mission to empower future innovators in healthcare technology.
