Sicheng Jiang received a B.S. in Chemistry at the University of Richmond in 2017 and a B.S. in Chemical Engineering at Columbia University in 2019. He has since joined the Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering at the University of Chicago. He is now co-advised by professors Matthew Tirrell and James LaBelle.
Sicheng Jiang has been investigating the potential use of peptides with hydrocarbon staples as a SARS-CoV-2 remedy post infection. With this current effort approaching an end, he is now shifting towards the development of targeted cancer therapy using polymeric nanocarriers.
