Margaret Bennewitz is a NRSA F32 postdoctoral scholar at the University of Pittsburgh in the Vascular Medicine Institute. During her postdoctoral studies, she has developed an in vivo multiphoton fluorescence microscopy technique for visualizing blood cell trafficking within the pulmonary microcirculation of live sickle cell disease mice. Using multiphoton microscopy, she aims to identify the cellular and molecular events promoting pulmonary vaso-occlusion in sickle cell disease mice. She is engaged in the teaching community at the university through being a member of Pitt-CIRTL. Her teaching as research project was implemented at the university’s Camp BioE for high school and middle school students last year. She received her BS degree in Bioengineering from the University of Pittsburgh in 2007 and her PhD from Yale University in Biomedical Engineering in 2012.
