Inhibrx is delighted to have hosted a workshop for The Better Education for Women in Science and Engineering (BE WiSE) program.
In collaboration with the Fleet Science Center, we engaged female students in grades 11–12 with an interactive workshop titled "How can we kill cancer cells?"
We aim to empower the next generation of scientists and innovators by giving them hands-on exposure to various stages of the drug discovery process.

"It's not enough to be good in the lab...
A few years ago, I finally made a breakthrough using CRISPR Knock-in and made cancer cells and neurons glow so that I could study their interaction to understand tumour nerve interactions in cancer-associated pain.
The data was brilliant. But in presenting it to our team and my PI, I fumbled the explanation. My excitement wasn't translating, and technical jargon bogged down questions. The project lost momentum.
Top-notch science means nothing if you can't communicate it clearly. Impact comes from getting others on board.

🚀 Exciting Collaboration 🤖 Microrobotics Alert! 🚀
I’m thrilled to announce our joint research paper with Prof. Ondřej Životský, Physicist from the Fakulta elektrotechniky a informatiky, VŠB-TUO. Together, we’ve been working on programming self-assembling magnetic microrobots with advanced physical and chemical intelligence – pushing the frontiers of biomedical technology!
These innovative microrobots hold immense potential in:
🔬 Cancer therapy - Targeted cancer cell detection and manipulation.
💊 Drug delivery - Precision delivery of therapeutic agents.
🧬 Biosensing - Dynamic immunosensing for selective cancer cell identification.
Our design integrates CaCO3 microparticles and Fe3O4 nanoparticles , enabling multimodal movement and precise, targeted actions. These microrobots can actively “seek-and-deliver,” revolutionizing how we approach cancer treatment and diagnosis.
We believe this research marks a significant step towards next-generation medical microrobots, combining multifaceted physical and chemical intelligences for real-world applications.
Looking forward to sharing more developments soon!

Very well said by Dr. Jagadeesh Gandla . Poor presentation skills, poor explanation of your results can really reduce the impact of your work. Following are some tips :
1. Be well read. In a room full of audience you are the one who should be the most read about your subject and you should also have an overall knowledge of your entire field past & current developments. If you are aware of where you & your skill set stands & where your work stands in the field, your confidence will sky rocket.
2. Know the limitations of your work with humility & know what you are not addressing in your work. This self assessment or assessment of your work showcases that you know the limitations well, but at the same time there are constraints where you alone or the current infrastructure or tools with you cannot solve the entire problem. Also if you say it out loud yourself, the fear that others will figure out the flaws will evaporate in thin air. Don't be ashamed to confess if you don't know something.
3. We often are anxious and defensive during presentations and forget that the whole pursuit of research is to unearth the unknown so it is better if we don't believe that our discovery is the end point or the only path to unearth the truth. There could be multiple routes to arrive to same conclusion. Keep yourself open to the idea that there are other correct (not wrong) ideas too! Use your presentation time as an opportunity to learn from others' knowledge. Make it a two-way conversation instead of a monologue.
4. Don't be scared of audience questions, in fact the system should promote a healthy environment where every one can ask a question without fearing that you will be judged. We can have a moderator who can serve as a bridge between young researchers and seasoned researchers to help moderate the environment and keep it positive and motivating and help the young students understand complex perspectives. So that the discussions are fruitful and enhance the understanding of the audience & speakers.
Majority of the time it is some novice or apparently stupid but thoughtful questions that can open a pandora box of ideas and help you approach the problem in a new light.
5. Practice doesn't kill, but it does improve your skill. Don't anticipate babysitting from your PI. You are an adult trying to do the highest degree so stop being lousy about that goal, own the responsibility of improving yourself.
Without your PI asking you to do mandatory presentations, make it a habit to do the presentations yourself. Go to your PI with a ppt for every single discussion. If you can visualise your results and thought process & idea, it will help your PI too to understand them. After all your PI is human and not a mind reader. They are more likely to appreciate your efforts if they can see the work progress and improvement in your approach to science.

Researchers at the University of Delaware, under the leadership of Assistant Professor Balaji Panchapakesan, have developed an innovative “nano-bomb” designed to specifically target and eliminate cancer cells.
By combining carbon nanotubes and using light exposure, they can initiate small explosions that effectively destroy cancer cells while sparing healthy tissue.
This advancement leverages the thermal characteristics of the nanotubes to deliver precise attacks on cancer.
