I successfully defended my PhD Thesis today at Yale Department of Immunobiology!!!! Such an honor to share one of three projects I've pursued during my time in the Iwasaki (Prof. Akiko Iwasaki) Lab! Thank you to all my friends, family, and mentors for their support today! #PhD #MDPhDToBe

Thrilled to share the first publication of my Ph.D. thesis today in @naturemicrobiol with @wilenlab and @virusesimmunity. Here we synthesized, recovered, and studied two of the closest known relatives of SARS-CoV-2 from bats that were recently discovered in Laos to assess their

This "frugal CRISPR kit" costs about $2. It includes a cell-free extract (no living cells), plasmids encoding colorful proteins, and Cas9 + guide RNAs. Students express colorful proteins in the extract & then use CRISPR to cut the protein-coding genes, leading to loss of color.
