Hicks Lab @UNCchemistry | PI: Leslie M. Hicks, Ph.D. | Novel implementation of mass spectrometry to study proteins in photosynthetic organisms | lab run
Check out this recent tardigrade manuscript with the Goldstein lab! Super cool!!
The tardigrade Hypsibius exemplaris dramatically upregulates DNA repair pathway genes in response to ionizing radiation

Next, we have Katelyn Wix, who received her B.S in chemistry from Florida State where she worked with metal flux synthesis. She has now pivoted to studying antimicrobial peptide expression in plants using mass spectrometry. Welcome, Katelyn!
Welcome to our newest graduate students! First up is Jeffrey Ocampo, who received his B.S in biochemistry from CSU Dominguez Hills where he studied marine natural products. He is returning to UNC after doing an REU in 2022, and we’re so excited to see what he does next!
Congratulations to our newest PhD, Dr. Patric Sadecki! Patric defended back in November and two of his newest papers came out in February. We'll miss all of his 'bidness' ideas, but we're excited to see the great things he'll do at Immuto Scientific!
A decades-old question about how light quality affects starch accumulation in green algae is now answered in our latest work! Phototropin connects blue light perception to starch metabolism in green algae https://t.co/I1JPDrRmVL #biorxiv_plants
Celebrating Evan's milestones! He just began his NSF-GRFP fellowship and published his first author review paper!!! Enjoy (free access for 50 days)! https://t.co/zKyhmPYa1P
