The team took a break at the Diamondbacks game. Although unfortunately we did not score a win, we still had a great time!

Part of the lab traveled to Cold Spring Harbor, New York to attend the Telomeres & Telomerase meeting.

We reached a first milestone: the lab is officially one year old! We decided to go out for lunch to celebrate.

Thanks to the invitation of Dr. Sadhan Majumder I had the opportunity to teach at this year’s Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Brain Tumor course. The students and faculty were outstanding: everyone was fully engaged and embracing every opportunity to learn new things.

The lab was overdue a new photo so we asked Jeff Watkins to help us out and shoot us some new ones. Thanks Jeff!

The spring weather in Phoenix has been incredible. Had the chance to take the lab and friends out for dinner at Pemberton, which is a hip food truck venue just a few minutes walking from the lab. Great times. Need to start taking photos more often though, because I missed out on documenting several other of these fun social events we had!

Excited to have been awarded the American Society for Clinical Investigation’s 2022 Young Physician Scientist Award along with a cohort of other talented investigators

Thankful to the Sylvia Chase Early Career Training Program for funding our research on telomere dysfunction in glioma
