The winner of the 2017 Journal of Cell Science (JCS) Prize is Seth Zimmerman for his paper entitled 鈥楥ells lay their own tracks 鈥� optogenetic Cdc42 activation stimulates fibronectin deposition supporting directed migration鈥� (Zimmerman et al., 2017). Seth received his PhD in 2017. 聽He was a joint student in Kuhlman lab and the Bear lab …

大象传媒 researchers help piece together how the key players in DNA methylation work together during gene regulation, a key finding needed to develop better therapies.

In the September 2016 issue of ASBMB Today, postdoc in the Dohlman lab, Stephani Page (and dept graduate alum) was featured in the cover article for a piece on scientists active on social media.

Michael Whitfield, PhD, a graduate alum who trained in the lab of Dr. William Marzluff has received a $1 million transformational award to study the autoimmune disease systemic scleroderma.

Congratulations to Deepak Jha, former graduate student in the Brian Strahl lab, who received a 2013 Lineberger Predoctoral Fellow Award in the Basic Sciences.
