Finally, I introduce Jackson McGaughey, who is taking on the role of Research Technician. He will be working with Ryan to learn the ins-and-outs of our animal experiments.
Jackson received his Bachelor’s degree in Cell and Molecular Biology from the University of Pittsburgh in 2022. During this time, he conducted research under the mentorship of Dr. Paul Monga in the Department of Cell and Molecular Pathology and focused on the understating the Wnt signaling pathway during liver regeneration. His research interest lies in elucidating molecular pathogenesis and emerging and re-emerging infectious disease.
Outside of research, he is an avid scuba diver and climber. He has a Great Dane named Onyx. He also loves to travel and explore.
