Congratulations to Sangeetha Tandalam! She was accepted into the Summer Research Program at Albert Einstein College of Medicine.

04/27/16 Please join us on Friday, May 13th at 3 pm for Lauren A. Esposito’s Masters thesis defense. The defense of her thesis, “The evolutionary interpretations of viral host range and biodiversity through the analysis of codon usage bias”, will take place in the Science Building (SB) room D139. Refreshments will follow in SB D348 at 4:30pm.

L-R: Fraida, Carmen, Elsa, Vincent. Not pictured: Lauren who was probably taking the picture.

Congrats to Texas A&M for recruiting Marko Baloh to their PhD program where he intends to continue research in microbiology. Predictably, Marko will probably gain an interest in college football and add the phrase “Gig ’em Aggies!” to his verbal repertoire.

04/02/16 Soon-to-be lab alumna Lauren Esposito is off to Mount Sinai this Fall to start a MPH in Epidemiology. Amazing work Lauren!

03/22/16 Please join us in congratulating Swati Gupta (BA ’15). She will be leaving us for the Accelerated Professional Master’s program in Cytotechnology at Thomas Jefferson University. Congrats Swati!
