Controlled presentation of cues during biomanufacturing to influence IDO mediated immune modulation by human MSCs

Abstract

me stay optimistic during hard times and my co-workers who helped me overcome problems I would not have been able to on my own. I would like to specifically thank my boss, mentor, and advisor Dr. Ankrum, who gave me the opportunity to do research in his lab in 2016. I am very greatful for this life changing experience and appreciate all of the time he has spent helping me reach the finish line. I would like to thank Alex Brown who trained me as an undergraduate. I would also like to thank my co-workers Lauren Boland and Tony Burand for the countless conversations we have had over the years that have shaped me as a researcher. And lastly, I would like to thank my grandparents who I have devoted this thesis to.
