Congrats to Mike Spagnuolo who became the 8th @BlennerLab PhD. He and Dyllan Rives were both hooded @ClemsonUniv last week.

[Blenner Lab at UD @BlennerLab]

Congrats to Anthony Stohr and Rachel Silvestri who passed their qualifiers and are now PhD candidates!

[Blenner Lab at UD @BlennerLab]

Congrats to the @BlennerLab's newest PhD - Dr. Dyllan Rives. She's the last student remaining at @ClemsonChBE. We're so proud of your accomplishments!

[Blenner Lab at UD @BlennerLab]

The @BlennerLab @weigao_wang @MarkBlenner published a paper on heterologous enzyme secretion in Yarrowia lipolytica, showing improvements via promoter, secretion tag, and secretory pathway engineering. https://t.co/8cnXJD095Z

[Blenner Lab at UD @BlennerLab]

Welcome to our 18 undergrads joining us this summer: Dheeraj, Nick, Jack W., Mekhi, Rena, Zach, Kayla, Max, Grace, Hanna, Krittee, Megan, Khiem, Suzi, Joe, Jack S., Chiku, and Sri.

[Blenner Lab at UD @BlennerLab]

@UDResearch @NSF Congrats Spencer!

[Mark Blenner 🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦🧬 @MarkBlenner]

The @BlennerLab is looking for a staff scientist with either significant analytical experience relevant to large and small Biomolecule detection (GC, LC, MS, metabolomics, or proteomics), or significant microbial engineering and molecular cloning experience. DM w/ interest.

[Mark Blenner 🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦🧬 @MarkBlenner]

The @BlennerLab is looking for a lab technician - someone with BS and some molecular biology / biochemistry lab experience. Ideally, looking to gain a few years of lab and research experience, looking to jump to grad school or industry after. Excitement about #synbio required.

[Blenner Lab at UD @BlennerLab]

Congrats to James Foster, a former undergrad in the @BlennerLab, who received his PhD from Scott Husson's group @Clemson_ChBE last week. James found his passion for research as an undergrad.

[Blenner Lab at UD @BlennerLab]

Congrats to Dr. Molly Wintenberg, who received her PhD last week. @MarkBlenner hooded her during the PhD hooding ceremony. Dr. Wintenberg is starting a postdoc at @NIST later this summer. Congrats on all your accomplishments!
