Hi everyone,
I'm no longer at UCSD and would like to transfer the admin privileges to the current active members --could someone please let me know who that is?
Thank you,
Anu

Check out our photos from our outreach event yesterday. Giulia Lanza-Billetta and Anugraha Raman had a lot of fun teaching these kids some chemistry and physics: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.497415320639188.1073741829.271404716573584&type=1&l=17caeb1359

Congratulations to Michelle Dow!

Congratulations to Michelle Dow, NLM Ph.D. student in the BISB program for an award for the best DBMI Flash Talk presented at the BEx on September 27th. BEx is an annual meeting hosted by the Graduate Bioinformatics Council for the BISB & BMI graduate programs. It features presentations from first-year students on their bootcamp projects, presentations by students about their research, and faculty speakers.

Michelle's Flash Talk focused on a current project involving multi-omic characterization of cancer alterations in mouse models with direct comparison to human tumors in order to evaluate which model provides the most optimal setting for identifying treatments of human disease.

Congratulations Michelle!
