Understanding the role of ketolytic enzymes in lung cancer progression.

Our research focuses on uncovering genetic underlying of cerebral aneurysms and illuminating sex-based disparities through patient samples and a murine mouse mode. 

How do biology and biomedical science students navigate career development once they have graduated from their undergraduate institution? 

Learn how to develop computational tools that integrate techno-economic and life cycle assessment with uncertainty analysis to inform the benefits of deploying novel plastic recycling technologies and policies. 

Our project aims to enhance the use of adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) as gene therapy vectors, the student will learn to make these viruses and modify them to improve their therapeutic capacity, particularly in central nervous system disorders.
