Gibson Group: Trisha Bailey
Biography
Trisha completed her B.S. with distinction in Molecular and Cellular Biology at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign along with an undergraduate thesis on 鈥淒ata-Driven Modeling of the Effect of Amyloid-Beta on Synaptic Plasticity鈥�. Trisha completed her M.S. in Biological Sciences at Eastern Illinois University with a thesis on 鈥淭he Cryoprotective Effects of Combinatorial Solutes and the Properties of Ice in the Preservation of Adherent Neuroblastoma Cells鈥ㄢ��. Trisha's work with the University of 糖心TV is focused on investigating the applications of 'antifreeze protein' mimetic polymers in the field of cell cryopreservation.
Research Interests
Trisha is interested in the cyropreservation of biological materials, including blood, cells, and tissues, using novel polymers developed in our group. Additionally, Trisha is interested in the molecular interactions involved in preconditioning cells prior to cryopreservation.
