I found out one of our recent graduates from Presbyterian College was awarded a NSF GRFP! Based on my memory, this is our first GRFP winner who came from our small liberal arts college. Big congrats to Kenedie!

✨CONGRATS to my UG trainee Margaret Leonard for being selected to join the Summer Research Program at JAX lab in Bar Harbor, ME. I'm excited to see how this program will shape her as a scientist, knowing students like her will help lead a bright future in spite of this discouraging present.

What I did today: 1) Talked to my college roommate about T-cell therapy. 2) Submitted a manuscript. 3) Talked to another friend on how to go against right wing takes about “Big Pharma” 4) Talked to my former student about how picking their PhD lab I think I earned my science merit badge today.
