"Being named a Mallinckrodt Foundation Fellow is an incredible honor, particularly given the distinguished caliber of past recipients and the 72-year legacy of this foundation supporting groundbreaking biomedical research since 1953. This recognition means more than just funding - it represents validation of our research vision and provides access to both the flexible resources and collaborative network of fellows that are essential for pursuing transformative science,"
"Our group is truly interdisciplinary, comprising engineers, biologists, clinicians, physicists, and other specialists. This award will enable us to maintain this rich collaborative environment and pursue groundbreaking problems in single-cell synthetic and systems biology. The flexible nature of this funding is particularly valuable because it allows us to follow promising leads wherever they may take us,"
"Goyal's research combines theory, computation, and single-cell resolved experiments to track and control cellular plasticity and fate choices in developing tissues and disease."
Yogesh Goyal, PhD, was named a 2025–2028 Edward Mallinckrodt, Jr. Foundation Grant Fellow. He is an assistant professor of Cell and Developmental Biology, courtesy faculty of Chemical and Biological Engineering and Biomedical Engineering at McCormick School of Engineering, a member of the Robert H. Lurie Comprehensive Cancer Center of Northwestern University, and an investigator at the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub Chicago. His research combines theory, computation, and single-cell resolved experiments to track and control cellular plasticity and fate choices in developing tissues and disease. His laboratory is interdisciplinary, including engineers, biologists, clinicians, and physicists. The award provides early-stage investigators annual funding for up to three years to advance toward independent R01-level funding.
