Jacquelyn Brown, Ph.D.
Scientist, Research
Jacquelyn Brown, Ph.D., is a research scientist at JDRF. She manages the biomarkers and disease development grant portfolios for the Prevention program. She is involved in JDRF’s cross-disciplinary
efforts surrounding type 1 diabetes (T1D) and Big Data, which involves teaming up with data analytics experts, including IBM Watson researchers, to develop machine learning methods to analyze years of global T1D research data to identify factors leading to
onset in children.
Dr. Brown also works closely with both the Regeneration and Immunotherapies programs to implement an effective JDRF Biomarker Program. The goal of this program is to identify multiple biomarkers
that present before diagnosis of T1D in order to recognize the genesis of the disease at an earlier stage and prolong onset.
Prior to her work at JDRF, Dr. Brown was a research fellow at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, where she designed and executed cancer research strategies to improve immune cell killing
of tumors.
Dr. Brown earned her doctorate from the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, where she researched the regulation of immune cell development and function, and received an NIH training
grant in immunology. Dr. Brown is a person with T1D herself, and has been living with it for 20 years.
