What if the key to curing disease like Alzheimer’s lies in the tiny, invisible molecules inside our cells?

In this episode of Holy Shift!: Biomedical Breakthroughs Shaping Tomorrow, host Angela Gill Nelms sits down with Dr. Felipe Quiroz, Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Georgia Tech and Emory University. Dr. Quiroz reveals how his lab engineers the invisible — proteins, cells, and genes — to understand and treat diseases like Alzheimer’s. From discovering how disordered proteins shape brain health to inspiring the next generation of scientists, Dr. Quiroz shares how foundational research today builds the breakthroughs of tomorrow that can transform healthcare for generations to come.

Tune in for a conversation that connects molecular science, mentorship, and hope for the future of medicine.
