The Baker lab had a fantastic experience mentoring POE intern Ethan Wunibald through the summer. He did an excellent job learning an array of techniques in the lab and presenting his findings. We look forward to seeing what he accomplishes next!
We are seeking an enthusiastic, motivated and curious PhD student to join us at @MCRI_for_kids to study how viral infections lead to pulmonary fibrosis using stem cell models 🫁. More details here: https://t.co/4uHQ5aPkYx

"The danger of this kind of catastrophizing is that it sells too well. As it gains momentum, the voices of doomsayers push aside non-doomsday threats happening now, making them appear trifling.

Why worry about algorithmic bias when we face a robot apocalypse?" https://t.co/ygxt9IloVA
An absolute HUGE congratulations to DR. @TaylorMatte4 on a truly stellar thesis defense @CReM_Boston! We’ve been besties since AP bio through @UML_Biology and @BUMedicine and have been pushing each other ever since. Bonus pic of us winning best science student @DracutHS in 2011!!
Congrats to newly minted Dr. @TaylorMatte4 on your successful thesis defense today @CReM_Boston@BU_GMS @BUPulmonary! and to his proud mentor @FinnHawkins! Wonderful doctoral dissertation work on how the master transcriptional regulator, NKX2-1, regulates lung fates! #itsthecells
