Ethan Bassin, PhD
Why did you choose the University of Pittsburgh?
I chose to pursue graduate study at Pitt due to the amount of high quality translational research in the fields of immunology and regenerative medicine. Dr Little's approach of applying engineering principles to problems and diseases in immunology is what attracted me to his lab.
