@dr_alexharris @ChristophWCowan @MakotoTani1 @neuro_MUSC Thank you!!

[Rose Marie Akiki @RM2Akiki]

I defended my PhD!! Thank you to my mentors @ChristophWCowan @MakotoTani1 for making a better scientist out of me, @neuro_MUSC , the lab, my committee, my friends and family for always supporting me!
PS: not in a liberal arts PhD, still a scientist 👩🏻‍🔬

[Rose Marie Akiki @RM2Akiki]

@alexbchen @CellCellPress @yu_guoqiang Congrats!! great work!

[Rose Marie Akiki @RM2Akiki]

@MakotoTani1 @ChristophWCowan @neuro_MUSC Thank you for all the support💜💜

[MakotoTaniguchi @MakotoTani1]

Our student @RM2Akiki did an excellent job on her defense!! Thanks to co-mentor, @ChristophWCowan, our lab members, and @neuro_MUSC for the warm support and encouragement. It was a wonderful day to celebrate an important step together.

[MakotoTaniguchi @MakotoTani1]

Our study, led by @RM2Akiki with @ChristophWCowan and supported by our co-authors, reveals how long-non-coding RNAs translate emotional experiences into immediate early gene expression through R-loops and 3D chromatin loops.
