Congratulations Ricky, Miriam, Avery! Welcome, Alex and Leah!

It is always bittersweet at the end of an academic year when our undergraduates get their degrees and move on to bigger and better things. This year there are more cheers and tears than usual: Avery Rice, Ricky Kong, and Miriam Herrera all earned their BS degrees and are off to new jobs applying their skills and passions. Additionally, Ella Simon departed for a year of study abroad in Australia, which will certainly be a life changing adventure. And finally, Renee Dollard after two years of tremendous diligence, management, and mentoring as our lab manager, is off to seek her next adventure. Fare thee well and keep in touch!

Fortunately we are excited to welcome Leah Estes as our next lab manager, Lilly Woodward as a part time lab helper, and Alex Utzschneider as an undergraduate lab assistant. Welcome!
