Ally Questell, an MD-PhD student in the HST program, is focusing her research on cancer immunology, hoping to contribute to a world in which cancer is no longer a devastating diagnosis for the millions of Americans who receive it each year.
Yet this past May, the federal grant that funds her MD-PhD training at Harvard was terminated.
Federal grants for MD-PhD training support students in programs across the United States, preparing them to become both physicians and researchers. If federal funding for MD-PhD training at Harvard is not restored, she worries that the next generation will not have the same opportunities to become physician-scientists.
“Physician-scientists are uniquely positioned to take problems that they see in the clinic, bring them back to the lab to devise solutions, and then translate that back to the clinic to improve patient lives,” she says.
Visit Harvard Medicine to watch the full video interview with Questell.
This story is part of a Harvard Medicine series which focuses on Harvard Medical School scientists as they discuss how these actions are affecting their research and their labs.

This fall, the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health has some unique course offerings in the Department of Social and Behavioral Sciences (SBS) that are eligible for cross registration.
SBS 207: Race, Ethnicity and Health
In a time where there is so much misinformation about race, this course tells the truth about race and ethnicity, and describes its striking consequences for health in the US and around the world. It will explain why, although differences in health by income and education are larger than racial differences, race still matters for health at every level of income and education. It will also showcase interventions within and outside the healthcare system that can reduce racial differences in health.
Fall 2; Tuesdays from 3:45pm-6:45pm
Instructor: Professor David Williams
SBS 215: Society and Mental Health
Poor mental health and mental disorders are often perceived as driven primarily by biological or genetic factors. However, how mental health is even defined and measured is shaped by societal factors, and exposure to societal risks and resources are critical contributors to variations in mental health and mental illness within the population. This course will provide an overview of multiple major social factors that affect the risk of mental health and mental illness, and how modern societies can and should respond to these risks. In this course, we will cover how exposure to stress, economic conditions, stigma, and racism can affect mental health, the role of larger physical/chemical environments in affecting mental health risks, and the role of social stigma in affecting Mental Health risks.
We will also cover how gender, LGBTQ+ status, race & ethnicity, and SES can affect mental health, how migration affects mental health initially and over time, and how early childhood exposures can affect adult mental health.
Fall 1; Thursdays from 3:45pm-6:45pm
Instructor: Professor David Williams

Transcatheter Heart Valve Repair and Replacement Devices
Transcatheter procedures avoid the trauma and risks of open-heart surgery by delivering devices that are intended to replicate surgical repair and replacement. We are creating novel devices and tools for both valve repair and replacement. These projects require innovative design and creative problem-solving skills along with expertise in prototyping and experimental evaluation.
Cutting tools for Transcatheter Valve Modification
While current transcatheter valve interventions deploy devices that push, pull and approximate tissue to restore valve function, a complete surgical repair often involves cutting and removing valve tissue. As a first step toward providing this capability, this project involves developing catheter-delivered energy-based cutting tools for valve repair and replacement.

The Capasso group at Harvard SEAS has an opening for postdoctoral position related to biophotonics+metasurface/biosensing research. The postdoc will make contributions towards building a metalens optical system to image bacteria, including integration with small-pixel sensors, potentially an easy-to-use manual focus system, an integrated light source, and an image capture and transfer system.The candidate will join the group of Prof. Federico Capasso and collaborate with a team at the Harvard Medical School, led by Prof. Johan Paulsson, focused on bacterial detection identification (ID) and antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST), leveraging on this optical system, including interfacing with a microfluidic system.
In addition to the basic instrument, the postdoc will develop more advanced metalens imaging modalities for bacteria, with the purpose of making the AST not only faster and more robust, but also potentially achieving some basic level of species ID. This will include the development of a compact form of quantitative phase microscopy by encoding polarization-dependent optical functions onto a single metasurface to perform full-Stokes image polarimetry.
Proficiency in laboratory optics and photonics with particular emphasis on imaging systems such as microscopy is preferred. Previous experience in nanophotonics and clean room fabrication would be beneficial but is not strictly required. History of work in polarization and optical polarimetry desirable. Interviews are currently on-going for this position: https://academicpositions.harvard.edu/postings/14008
