Sam Richardson

I grew up in Cleveland, Ohio and I recently graduated from Northwestern University. There, I majored in chemistry with a concentration in organic chemistry. I worked in the Mirkin Lab for three years developing DNA dendrimers to activate the cGAS-STING pathway for the repolarization of the tumor microenvironment.

Now, I work with Dr. Qinqin Jiang to isolate TCRs targeting HIF-regulated endogenous retrovirus antigens in clear renal cell carcinoma. 

In my spare time, I enjoy hiking, snowboarding, and Cleveland sports.
