Biography

Jude M. Phillip is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Johns Hopkins University. His research primarily focuses on applying fundamental engineering principles to address key questions in aging and cancer biology. His long-term objective is to develop and translate discoveries from the laboratory into medical technologies aimed at improving human health and longevity. He is particularly interested in creating robust cell-based biomarkers for aging, health, and disease, which can stratify vulnerable individuals. His work involves establishing research pipelines to elucidate the mechanistic relationships between age-related dysfunctions, disease progression, and treatment responses. He leverages emerging technologies for longitudinal cell-based profiling, including single-cell biophysical properties and ‘omics’, coupled with advanced data science approaches to comprehensively assess health. His current projects focus on developmental validation of cell-based biomarkers, scale-dependence of aging pathways, and age-induced stroma-immune crosstalk in shaping the tumor immune microenvironment. Dr. Phillip is also keen on studying the impact of gender, demographics, and social determinants of health on health disparities and aging outcomes.
