A couple weeks ago, two students started in our lab for the summer. Jelani is an undergraduate at Washington University, and will be studying microglia under the mentorship of Mike Vasek. Kristian is a high school (!) student visiting as a YSP (Young Scientist Program) scholar. She’s working with Tomas Lagunas on the full breadth of his work–they fired up the drill and did TRAP this morning!
The lab uniformly loves both mentoring and learning, so we’re thrilled to welcome these visiting scholars!
