Details

Dr. John Hickey is an assistant professor of Biomedical Engineering at Duke University. Dr. Hickey completed his postdoctoral training in Garry Nolan's lab at Stanford University, where he developed systems biology tools to analyze spatial relationships among cells in tissues. Prior to that, he pursued his PhD in Biomedical Engineering at JHU under the guidance of Dr. Jonathan Schneck and Hai-Quan Mao. During his doctoral studies, he developed magnetic nanoparticles for enriching and expanding rare antigen-specific T cells, as well as hydrogels for adoptive T cell therapy. The Hickey lab currently focuses on understanding how complex spatial networks of cell interactions provide function in healthy tissue, disease, and how they can be exploited therapeutically.
