This week we are excited to welcome Emma Magee to the lab. Emma joins us as a Technical Associate, having previously worked as a Research Associate at the Broad Institute on developing methods for simultaneously measuring protein and gene expression levels in single cells.

Emma will be working with Miles and in collaboration with Fei Chen's lab at the Broad/Harvard on developing new genome-editing and imaging methods.

Welcome Emma!

Thank you to The Alexander and Margaret Stewart Trust and the Pew Foundation for funding our work on enhancer dysregulation in cancer.

We are very happy to join the 2021 class of Pew-Stewart Scholars and begin the work.

More information can be found here.

This week we are welcoming Isadora De Abreu, who is joining us for the summer as part of the MRSP summer program. Isodora is currently an undergraduate at Nova Southeastern University and will be working with Michele on turning our stem cells into neurons. Welcome Isadora!

Thank you to the G. Harold and Leila Y. Mathers Foundation for funding our grant "Enhancer Dysregulation in Neurodevelopmental Disorders" to support Michele's work on understanding the molecular basis for a neurodevelopmental disorder for 2021-2023

Congratulations to Miles and Michele on being awarded post-doc fellowships to support their research!

Michele has been awarded the American-Italian Cancer Foundation's Post-Doctoral Research Fellowship for 2021/22.

Miles will likely have to choose between two fellowships, including the EMBO Postdoctoral Fellowship.
