Our lab keeps growing!

Early this month, we incorporated two more members! Betty joined the lab as a Ph.D. student and Gareth as an undergrad!

Betty completed her Master's degree a few months ago in Alexandria, Egypt, and since moving here has hit the floor running experiments! Gareth is an undergrad at UM pursuing studies in Biochemistry and Marine Sciences. Together, they are focusing on the role of chromosomal architecture in metastatic dissemination of breast cancer.

Our lab receives the 2023 Arima Genomics Cancer Research Grant!

Arima Genomics has been a game changer in the study of the 3D genome. They have revolutionized the field by offering the first commercial Hi-C kits, streamlining and simplifying the protocols, and they have partnered with researchers around the globe to expand knowledge in this field.

We are thrilled that our lab has been selected among many innovative candidates to receive the 2023 Arima Genomics Cancer Research Grant,  which will help us fund the initial stages of our project investigating the role of chromosomal architecture during metastatic dissemination.

We are very grateful to Arima Genomics for the Grant and look forward to many discoveries to come!

New lab milestone: our lab is up and running (PCRs!). Since last week, the lab has had cell lines in culture and is already running genotyping PCRs (for mice born in our facilities!).

Thanks to Mabel, Dio and Mika for the hard work and the enthusiasm!

We are hiring
