We have several exciting developments in the lab…
Several members walked in support of the American Foundation of Suicide Prevention.
We participated in the second annual KU Center for Genomics Symposium. The event was a success with many great research talks from colleagues both near and far, two poster sessions, and a fun Up-Goer-5 competition where scientists explain their research using only the 1000 most commonly used words in the English language (it’s harder than you think!).
Rob attended a mini Meiotic Drive conference in Switzerland, where 25 researchers from around the world worked on finalizing a new review for the field.
Anjali, Jesse, and Rob attended the Evolution meeting in Albuquerque, NM, where Jesse and Anjali gave talks and took pictures with some old lab friends of those of us who couldn’t attend the conference.
Nilanjan studied hard all spring and summer and successfully passed his qualifying exam at the end of summer!!!
There was a successful outing to the Kansas City Renaissance Festival, which it seems like we are making an annual lab event.
