Drew Bradshaw
Junior Commercial Translation Architect
Develop strategies to commercialize projects within sciVelo’s digital health and precision medicine themesGraduate Research Fellow
Studying mechanisms underlying how cancers respond to the tumor microenvironment using microphysiological systems and systems biology to uncover therapeutic treatments for metastatic disease
Education and Experience
Drew is currently a graduate research fellow in Cellular and Molecular Pathology and is working on his thesis in Dr. Alan Wells’ laboratory. His work focuses on understanding the link between therapeutically stressed cancer secretomes and resistance in tumor microenvironments (TME). This work pays special attention to the non-malignant cell populations, with investigations into pathological changes in extracellular matrix (ECM) as a driver of progression and cancer persistence. This work utilizes novel microphysiomimetic systems to develop all-human TMEs from human organs. Prior to his matriculation, Drew has worked at the University of Pennsylvania in Dr. Dennis Discher’s Molecular and Biophysics laboratory. During this time, he also consulted with the Wharton affiliated, Penn Biotechnology Group, which aimed to develop commercialization strategies for early stage projects. Drew also worked with Corning Incorporated to construct new life science products and applications which were commercialized as market available products and solutions. These earlier experiences and enthusiasm for developing market-focused solutions led Drew to sciVelo and the Center for Commercial Applications of Healthcare Data team.
