💫NEW: Anupama Hemalatha, valentina greco, Rachel Perry & co track the endogenous redox ratio (NAD(P)H/FAD) with live imaging in the mouse skin and find that maintaining a robust redox ratio is key to clonal prevalence. nature.com/articles/s4155…

Congratulations Dr. Akingbesote Ngozi D. Akingbesote. It’s been a privilege and a pleasure to be her PhD mentor!



It was a pleasure to talk to the team at Hello Bio about my somewhat atypical path, growing from undergrad to associate professor at the same university Yale Internal Medicine Yale Cancer Center (I did change labs at one point…but it was from my mentor’s to my own!)
