Maeve Pattie

MCB graduate student

 

Maeve is a PhD student in the Molecular and Cellular Biology program. Her current work focuses on translating an intravesical immunotherapy to treat bladder cancer into the clinic as part of the lab’s partnership with Dr. Rodwell Mabaera at the Dartmouth Cancer Center. Before joining Dr. Huang’s lab, Maeve earned her bachelor's degree from Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut, and worked for four years in the biotechnology industry in Boston. At Generate Biomedicines, she constructed and screened synthetic antibody libraries as part of the company’s platform in generating computationally designed therapeutic proteins. She then joined Strand Therapeutics, where she worked as a Senior Associate Scientist. In this role she helped to design and construct synthetic circuits embedded in mRNA molecules to enable the precise delivery of therapeutic cargo to tumor cells as part of Strand’s precision RNA platform. Outside of the lab, she is a member of the Dartmouth Biotech Club and enjoys reading and hiking.
