Photo essay: Research life in SMPH
Posted on
On Tuesday, Sept. 21, Pathum Karunaratne, media specialist at Media Solutions, captured photographs in the lab of Assistant Professor Darcie L. Moore, PhD, in the Department of Neuroscience to depict research life in the school. After only a brief pause at the start of the pandemic, research in SMPH has been continuing safely now into the fall 2021 semester.
Assistant Professor Darcie Moore, PhD, talks with members of her lab in the Department of Neuroscience. The lab studies mechanisms that stem cells use to create the asymmetric segregation of cargoes, to identify what other components are segregated, and to use this knowledge to improve stem cell aging.
