Our postdoc Chun Yang got awarded this year's S. Walter Englander Prize for Postdoctoral Research from @BB_UPenn. It's a nice combination of biochemistry and cryo-EM as well as yeast genetics from the Kaplan lab @TriggerLoop .

Happy Monday! Next up for our member spotlights we have our Social Chair, Leon Palao III! He is a 2nd year student in @BMBGGUPENN and is mentored by Kenji Murakami and @yiweichang. His favorite spot on @Penn's campus is Penn Park! And, he loves @sacnas's community outreach!
