Congratulations to Peter Chen and Samarth Aggarwal for being offered the Dean’s Select Fellowship in the BME and Imaging Science PhD programs respectively.
We are welcoming two new members to our lab. Sophie Ma joins us as a undergraduate researcher, and Samarth Aggarwal is our new research technician who recently relocated from San Diego, CA.
We are so excited to welcome two new lab members to our lab! Aditi Maduskar graduated with a PhD in Neuroscience from IISER, Pune. For her doctoral thesis she used zebrafish as a model system to investigate the signal transduction mechanisms that underlie neuropeptidergic regulatoin of feeding behaviour and associated modalities. In Chen lab, she […]
Warmest congratulation to Chen Lab member Peter Chen on earning his Bachelor of Science degree in Biomedical Engineering! Peter will be pursuing his Master’s here at Wash U this fall.
Neuroscientists at Washington University in St. Louis answer some of the frequently asked questions by Brain Discovery’s 4th-6th grade students.
Chen Lab’s senior lab member Pingchuan Ma presented his research recently at the Neuroscience Retreat.
In 2023 our lab will be relocating to the new Neuroscience Research Building, under construction right now. Here’s is a time lapse video of the progress.
MSTP student Lizzie Tilden joins the lab. Her Ph.D thesis work will focus on investigating the potential role of PKA in sleep. Using simultaneous Electroencephalogram (EEG) and Fluorescent Lifetime Photometry (FLiP) in freely behaving mice, she can precisely track PKA activation and characterize or manipulate activity patterns throughout the sleep and wake cycle. We are […]
