Nanoengineering

Anthony Omole
I transferred to the University of California, Berkeley to complete my bachelor's degree in Chemical Biology from El Camino College. I became involved in research with the Francis Research Group where I worked with biomaterials to form micellar systems. After graduating, I moved to Maryland to continue research at the National Cancer Institute as a Post Baccalaureate Fellow. While I was there, I used activity-based probes and inhibitors to study proteases and their relationship to immunological problems and cancer. Now, I am a graduate student with the Steinmetz Research Group in the NanoEngineering Department at UCSD, where I will be working on cancer immunotherapy using plant nanotechnology. Outside of research, I enjoy reading realist fiction novels and geocaching.
