Ekaterina Selivanovitch

Ekaterina is currently a postdoctoral researcher with Professor Susan Daniel at Cornell University, developing cell-free synthesis methods for the design of targetable virus-like liposomes, for which she has been awarded the Kirschstein-NRSA fellowship. Ekaterina earned her B.S. in chemistry from St. Francis College, where she conducted both chemical and biological research under Professors Robin Helburn and Katherine Nolan. She then pursued an M.S. in chemistry from St. John's University, focusing on DNA origami virus sensors with Professor Philip Lukeman. Her Ph.D. in chemistry was completed at Indiana University, under the guidance of Professor Trevor Douglas, developing virus-like particle-based catalytic systems.
