Ph.D. Chemical Engineering, California Institute of Technology, 2012
Postdoctoral Research Associate, University of Southern California
Katie Galloway is the Charles and Hilda Roddey Career Development Professor in Chemical Engineering at MIT. She studied Chemical Engineering at UC Berkeley and obtained her PhD from Caltech. PhD in Chemical Engineering at Caltech, and did her postdoc at USC Stem Cell before starting at MIT in the summer of 2019. As a chemical engineer working in molecular systems biology, her research focuses on elucidating the fundamental principles of integrating synthetic circuitry to drive cellular behaviors. Her lab focuses on developing integrated gene circuits and elucidating the systems-level principles that govern complex cellular behaviors. Her team leverages synthetic biology to transform how we understand cellular transitions and engineer cellular therapies. Her research has been featured in Science, Cell Stem Cell, Cell Systems, and Development. She has won multiple fellowships and awards including the NIH Maximizing Investigators' Research Award (MIRA) R35, the NIH F32, and Caltech’s Everhart Award.
