Dr. Li Tang is currently an Assistant Professor and Principal Investigator for the Laboratory of Biomaterials for Immunoengineering (LBI) at École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL). Dr. Li Tang was an Irvington Postdoctoral Fellow in Dr. Darrell Irvine’s lab at MIT. Dr. Tang received his Ph.D. from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign while working as an NIH M-CNTC Fellow in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering. He received his bachelor’s degree in Chemistry from Peking University in China in 2007. He is the recipient of CRI Irvington Postdoctoral Fellowship, Marlena Felter Bradford Research Travel Fellowship, and Racheff-Intel Award.
The overarching goal of the Tang laboratory is to establish the detailed understanding of the interactions between synthetic biomaterials and the immune system and precisely control the immune response using engineered intelligent biomaterials in order to develop effective novel immunotherapies for cancer, infectious diseases, and autoimmune disorders.
