Always a day to celebrate when someone defends their thesis and gets their scientific wings. Congrats to Joe Clark @IGGPenn @IGAPenn today! I am amazed at the resilience of any student going through this process. Its never easy, but last 2 years have made this more difficult.

Well, its a good cohort, but I think the 2020 and 2021 cohorts might be better at staying on their feet.

The Immunology Graduate Group @IGGPenn retreat yesterday was AMAZING! I got to meet most of the first year students. What a great group of young scholars. Also passed by the lab and we are on schedule to open in January 2022! We are hiring at all levels.
