Bring on the STED Microscopy
Notice of Award arrives for a Leica Stellaris STED microscope to be housed in the Hooker Imaging Core, where Stephanie serves as Faculty advisor for Light Microscopy. We are so excited to bring this technology to campus and grateful for this S10 NIH funding
Stephanie receives Scialog award
Stephanie received a Scialog Team Award through Chemical Machinery of the Cell. The goal of these awards is to catalyze breakthroughs in fundamental understanding of chemical processes which underlie the workings of intact living cells that will lead to a new era of advancement in cell biology. Along with Alexis Komor, (Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of California, San Diego) and Yan Yu (Chemistry, Indiana University), the team will work on the project: Elucidating the Polygenic Origins of Schizophrenia: Linking Protein Trafficking to Synapse Function
Chris Ho awarded AHA fellowship!
Graduate student Chris Ho is awarded a two year fellowship from the American Heart Association to investigate Coronin 1A role in TRIM-mediated neuronal morphogenesis. Congratulations Chris!
