A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Robert Langer for delivering an unforgettable talk at Rice’s President’s Lecture Series Monday. In “The Road Not Taken,” Dr. Langer shared powerful lessons from his remarkable journey — from chemical engineering to breakthroughs in nanotech and medicine. His message: never give up, aim for impact, and surround yourself with great mentors and partners. We’re proud to collaborate with pioneers like Dr. Langer — and grateful for the shoutout to our own outstanding Rice researchers @kjmchugh1, Tony Mikos and Omid Veiseh @veiseho. #RicePLS #RobertLanger #innovation #mentorship #RiceUniversity

#SontagScientist @kjmchugh1 partnered with cancer specialists at @MDAndersonNews & @bcmhouston to develop and test his approach. “We’ve done some modeling to show these concepts generally work. Now it’s about personalizing them to mutations that are specific to the patients.”
