Awards

A talk and a F31, congrats Theresa!

Theresa received two pieces of good news this past month. First, she was awarded a Ruth L. Kirschstein Predoctoral Individual National Research Service Award (F31) to explore the connection between disease linked mutations and gene expression outcomes using yeast as a model system. Second, Theresa was selected to give a talk at the CSHL Eukaryotic mRNA Processing meeting on her work describing co-transcritional mRNP assembly using live cell imaging. Both amazing accomplishments, congratulations Theresa!

 

More Reasons To Celebrate

The lab would like to say congratulations to Brenda for winning a NSERC Undergraduate Student Research Award. To make things even better Judit has just returned from holidays bearing gifts, including a shot glass to help us toast Brenda’s success. Sadly a change in Brenda’s plans means she will be unable to spend the summer in the lab or accept her NSERC award.  However, we all hope she will join us again in September for another undergraduate project.
