We’re proud to share that PNRI postdoc Shradha Suyal, PhD has received the 2025 Cynthia Le Mons Fellowship from @NUCDF! 🎉 Her #research in Dr. Aimée Dudley’s lab is uncovering how genetic changes cause arginase 1 deficiency, a rare #ureacycledisorder.
Thank you NUCDF! 💙

[National Urea Cycle Disorders Foundation (NUCDF) @CureUCD]

Suyal, a molecular biologist, will be researching arginase 1 deficiency, a rare UCD caused by genetic variants in the ARG1 gene that leads to high levels of arginine in the blood, which can cause severe health problems. Congratulations, Shradha!

It’s hard to believe we’re talking back to school already, but it’s nearing that time! School can be a nerve-racking place and time for children with UCDs (and their parents). We’re here to support you. See our back-to-school resources here: https://t.co/AOR22sNs2j
