My name is Andreas Kaimis, and I am a Master’s candidate in the Department of Biomedical Engineering. I earned my Bachelor of Engineering with a concentration in Cellular and Molecular Biomedical Engineering here at Stony Brook in Spring 2024 and am on track to complete my M.S. in Spring 2025.

Currently, I am conducting research in Dr. Ete Chan’s lab, investigating the effects of Low-Intensity Vibration (LIV) on T-cell proliferation to optimize CAR T-cell therapy. Since joining the Chan Lab in Summer 2023, I have gained hands-on experience in both experimental and engineering aspects of this project. This includes developing LIV devices and analyzing T-cell protein expression in response to mechanical stimuli.

My research interests lie at the intersection of genetic medicines, translational research, and computational analysis. I am particularly passionate about the potential of interdisciplinary approaches to revolutionize medicine. By building a strong foundation in both molecular and computational techniques, I aim to help produce innovations that bridge these fields and shape the future of healthcare.
