Biography

Evan Scott is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Northwestern University. His research interests include nanotechnology, immunology, and the development of therapeutics and vaccines. He is particularly focused on investigating the underlying immunological mechanisms that contribute to inflammation-driven processes in heart disease and cancer. In his work, he develops theranostic strategies aimed at identifying specific cells and tissues for targeted drug delivery. Scott also investigates injectable hydrogels for sustained and low dosage drug delivery, exploring their application in ocular, tumor microenvironment, vasculature, and lymphatics. His studies emphasize the design and development of novel polymers that facilitate self-assembled nanocarriers for controlled drug delivery, thus advancing therapeutic options in biomedical engineering.
