Nikhila, Abrar, and I all enjoyed the EMBO workshop in Copenhagen! We are also thankful that the organizers put so much effort into the Hybrid format, where Deba (Hehnly lab Postdoc) was able to actively participate and attend while staying in Syracuse. Nikhila and Abbi both presented posters and gave a joint presentation in Science Slam too, titled “The different roles a centrosome can play” (included photos below). I (Heidi) also gave a lecture titled “Centrosome positioning during lumen formation in the zebrafish Kupffer’s Vesicle”. We enjoying meeting everyone over the amazing coffee, snacks and meals, and are so thankful to the organizers for making this happen. We finished off the meeting with an awesome meal at Ark, a Michelin rated Vegetarian restaurant and then an afternoon at the most beautiful amusement park, Tivoli! Included are some photos below.
Congrats to Chris Taveras for his SOURCE poster presentation at Syracuse University!
Chris Taveras did his undergraduate research summer project with us this summer. He worked with graduate student Nikhila Krishnan.
Welcome Debadrita Pal!
So excited to welcome Deba to the lab as our first postdoc! Also she will be at Society for Developmental Biology’s meeting presenting her graduate work on July 14!
Talk at CABD! Friday March 12.
I had a great time virtually presenting at Centro Andaluz de Biologia del Desarollo in Sevilla, Spain. My talk was titled “Centrosome driven mechanisms regualting spindle assembly, cytokinetic bridge severing, and lumenogenesis”. I loved talking to the Junior committee afterwards and the scientific discussions I had with faculty and students. Thanks so much to Ana Neto for inviting me, I’m hoping I can at some point visit in person!
