Such a great talk by Randy Schekman UC Berkeley MCB today! So thankful he took the time to tell us about his groups exciting new exosome research progress! WVUBiochemistry Office of Research and Graduate Education

Madeleine Joullié was the first female organic chemist to be appointed to a tenure track position at a major research university & has synthesized numerous natural products during her career #womenshistorymonth penntoday.upenn.edu/news/maverick-…

1st place went to Janelle Chuah, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology student from the WVU School of Medicine, for her presentation "Switch On the 'Garbage Disposal' to Treat Alzheimer's Disease".

Today 1pm EST one of our students will be presenting her research, at a level appropriate for a non-scientist. Public distrust of science is at an all-time high. Let's counter this with public engagement about research put in clear and simple terms!

Nice shout out to all the excellent work Claire has been doing in scientific journalism. Way to go!medicine.hsc.wvu.edu/News/Story?hea…

Check out Claire's first blog post about women in science. This is such an important topic, and I'm very proud of her initiative to take this on.WVUBiochemistry Office of Research and Graduate Education clairesmathers.wixsite.com/my-site

Congratulations to Claire Smather's in Dr. Robart's lab! She won the University Relations Scientific Journalism Scholarship, for her work on scientific journalism.

The Department of Biochemistry is expanding its faculty at the Assistant or Associate Professor rank (tenure-track). The department is seeking to recruit an investigator with an exciting research program focused on fundamental biological mechanisms. wvu.taleo.net/careersection/…

So proud of Olivia Carpenter, who gave an awesome talk and poster at the INBRE symposium this week! Undergraduates can accomplish amazing research over a summer. WVUBiochemistry WVU Office of Undergraduate Research Office of Research and Graduate Education wv-inbre.net
