We had a great winter to spring rotation with Peter Raymond-Smiedy in the lab! He worked on Cenexin’s role as a scaffold for the mitotic kinase, Polo Like Kinase 1 (PLK1) where he got to perform some sweet microscopy and live cell imaging. He even did our first virtual lab meeting on zoom!
Peter worked closely with our lab postbac scholar Michael Bates (on left in photo below) where they created with the help of Judy Freshour (lab manager) a CRISPR cenexin-null line. Way to go Peter and Mike!
