We start the semester for our Genetics and Molecular Biology (GMB) graduate students with a “Making Mutants” module where various model systems face off to argue why they are good systems in which to model a specific human disease. My support for my student who has budding yeast at our 8am class!

Exciting day with BCDB Graduate student Tyshawn Ferrell as he defends his PhD- Tyshawn is a creative and independent scientist. He was supported by our NIH IMSD Fellowship- which had a huge impact on his scientific career! Congrats to Dr. Ferrell🎉

What makes my job meaningful is seeing former trainees thrive! Foje (in middle) did research with us after his first year at Bowdoin- he worked with a then graduate student who in a twist of coincidence is now an Assistant Professor at Bowdoin! His white coat as he starts his MD/PhD at Einstein 😍

My colleague, who is part of our Capitol Hill team with ASBMB advocating for basic science, keeps running into students that she trained in her classroom who are here advocating for the American Medical Association! So fun to see the impact of her training in real 3D! #ASBMBAdvocates
