Angelo received his B.S. and Ph.D. in Bioengineering from Harvard University. His graduate work under the mentorship of Dr. David Mooney focused on developing a microfluidic-based technology for single-cell encapsulation in tunable hydrogels for studying cell behavior in vitro and improving cell therapies in vivo. As a Wyss Technology Development Fellow, Angelo is working on using cell-free lysates to create novel biomaterials with sense-and-respond capabilities, with the ultimate aim of deploying them as a theranostic tool in various disease contexts.
