Carolyn Sayre

Carolyn’s career has taken her all over the country. Originally from Tucson, AZ, she earned her Bachelor’s degree in Nutritional Biochemistry from Case Western Reserve University and her Ph.D. in metabolic biology from UC Berkeley, and she developed methods for modeling human metabolic diseases in the lab of Chad Cowan at the Harvard Stem Cell Institute. Much of her expertise comes from building in vivo models to study a variety of biological phenomena. Carolyn joins Dewpoint after tackling the intricacies of developing red blood cell therapeutics for rare genetic diseases at Rubius Therapeutics. She is overjoyed at the opportunity to weave her knowledge of cell biology with the rapidly evolving field of condensates in the ongoing effort to develop new therapeutics.
