We are still recovering from Maddy’s defense and coming to the realization that she is no longer in the lab! We can’t ask her any more questions! Or where anything is!
Yet new fun changes are also here. We have TWO new PhD students that just started with us. I’ll be introducing each here. First up:….Cade Sterling!
Cade says: “I grew up in Chattanooga, TN near the tail end of the Appalachian range. I did my undergrad at the University of the South in Sewanee, TN, where I worked with Dr. Clint Smith on coronavirus reverse genetics and viral replication. Outside of the lab, I’m probably going on adventures with my wife or chasing the perfect cup of coffee — trying new roasters, coffees with experimental processing techniques, or changing my brew method."
Cade rotated with us in the fall and wasn’t scared off! Here he is with Rachael, getting a taste of the BSL3. We manage to have fun while we’re doing science!
Cade will be working on Lrp1 related projects. So excited to have fresh new ideas and perspectives!
