2019: 12 PhD programs, zero interviews, 13 rejections (one school rejected me twice)
2020: 12 PhD programs, five interviews, 5 offers
Very excited to announce I will be attending a PhD program in Cellular and Molecular biosciences at UC Irvine this Fall.

The Biology Student Committee will be interviewing prospective chairs on Dec 4th and we would like to get your perspective on how the department could better serve you. We would appreciate if you could take a few minutes to fill out this google poll and give us your thoughts.
Here's a throwback to when our lab was still able to get together for lunches.
Missing all these people very much! Looking forward to getting back to the lab very soon! @Frances18620166 @jakelber @caroscience08 @NadalesNathalie

The following is the first paper I was ever published in; it talks about the role of eIF5A1/2 in promoting breast cancer metastasis.
I look forward to discussing my current project and how it expends upon the findings of this paper at #2020CSUICM

Very humbled to be the recipient for the @CSUNBIO Julie Gorchynski, MD Research Graduate Student Scholarship.
