We’re adding two more to the list of Wainger Lab alumni! Katherine is off to begin her journey of becoming a physician-scientist in the MSTP program at the Perelman School of Medicine in Philadelphia, while Joao has moved on to investigate Alzheimer’s Disease at Tufts Medical School. We will miss you both greatly and will forever appreciate the incredible contributions you have made to the group!
We’ve had to say goodbye to two wonderful lab members over the last few weeks. We wish the best to Xiaofan as she returns to her position as an anesthesiologist in China and to Patrick as he begins with Eli Lilly in the pain and neurodegenerative disease sectors. We appreciate everything you have done for the lab and look forward to seeing where you go!
