The Wright Lab

We do chemistry and take care of the jellyfish.

thrilled to see our lab so strongly represented at the @beatmalaria 2022 Leadership Summit! Way to go @drcarsonmoore

[The Wright Lab @TheWrightLab]

@drcarsonmoore, @JDeSousaChem and Dr. Lauren Toote published this innovative new sample prep method for malaria diagnostic methods! We are so proud of them!

[VU Chemical Biology @VICB_Vanderbilt]

In a new Journal of Chromatography B report, the @TheWrightLab created and characterized immobilized metal affinity chromatography-functionalized cellulose membranes for future use in applied malaria diagnostics. Read all about it: https://t.co/fE17FNfZRy

Dream Team alert! Megan van der Horst and @carsonpmoore have successfully defended their theses! These two stellar young women entered this lab together and presented their final defenses one day apart! We are so proud of you two and couldn’t be more excited for the future! ❤️

[The Wright Lab @TheWrightLab]

Big news from the Wright lab! Our very own @JDeSousaChem has successfully defended her thesis with an incredible presentation of stellar science, making her a newly minted PhD in Chemistry! Congratulations are in order DOCTOR DESOUSA!

[The Wright Lab @TheWrightLab]

Micaella and Jenna have done a fascinating study on the gold-flow properties of LFAs! Amazing work team! #womeninSTEM

[Jenna DeSousa @JDeSousaChem]

Check out some of the work @MicaellaJorge and I have been up to in the @TheWrightLab! #chemistry #WomenInSTEM #chemtwitter https://t.co/yc0ql5mPq8

@JDeSousaChem @MicaellaJorge Congrats team! Great work!

[The Wright Lab @TheWrightLab]

Today’s a big day for Wright Lab publications! The MyCOVIDKey team, led by Dr. Tom Scherr, @JDeSousaChem and @carsonpmoore published some great work with @jmirpub

Excellence doesn’t let even a global pandemic keep it down! @JDeSousaChem absolutely smashing it with her successfully defended Independent Research Proposal! Congratulations Jenna!!

[The Wright Lab @TheWrightLab]

Congrats to Carson Moore and Dr. Thomas Scherr for their newest publication: Evaluating Network Readiness for mHealth Interventions Using the Beacon Mobile Phone App: Application Development and Validation Study in JMIR mHealth and uHealth! https://t.co/XwqH6vgviT

[The Wright Lab @TheWrightLab]

This year we’re #thankful for amazing global health research with wonderful colleagues, collaborators, and labmates (both current and former!). 4th year candidate Carson and post-doc Nate went to DC last week to present at #ASTMH19 and saw some familiar faces! Great work team!

[The Wright Lab @TheWrightLab]

Congrats to our newest PhD candidate, Jenna DeSousa! 🎉 We can’t think of a more awesome way to round out qualifying season! Andrew even broke out the @Patriots jersey in support (and definitely not because he lost a bet)!

[The Wright Lab @TheWrightLab]

Wright lab reunion alert: Carson (current 4th year graduate student) and Christine (pursuing a post-doctoral appointment at Duke) are both presenting at this week’s Gordon Research Conference and Seminar on Malaria!

[Dr. Win @Paleowin]

Here’s the video of me getting my PhD from UO and my poor adviser having to rangle me into the hood. She said I had to walk and wear robes, she just didn’t specify they couldn’t be over a T.rex costume. #phdchat #ScienceTwitter

[The Wright Lab @TheWrightLab]

So excited for Mindy’s awesome new article!

[VU Chemical Biology @VICB_Vanderbilt]

Now we can detect single-nucleotid polymorphisms associated with antimalarial drug resistance by using whole blood samples - from VICB member David Wright. @TheWrightLab https://t.co/yh59LeeWCr

[The Wright Lab @TheWrightLab]

Getting out of the lab for a bit to watch the #USWNT dominate and to celebrate Jenna’s 25th birthday! Nothing like a 3-0 win on your birthday, huh?

[The Wright Lab @TheWrightLab]

Very excited to see Jenna’s talk today! Come check it out!

[Vanderbilt Chemistry @VanderbiltChem]

Come see graduate students Jenna DeSousa from the Wright Research Group (@TheWrightLab) & Jessica Paredes from the Schey Research Group at today’s forum! The forum will take place in Stevenson Center 4309 from 4:15pm-5:15pm. #vanderbilt #vandy #vanderbiltuniversity #chemistry

[The Wright Lab @TheWrightLab]

Despite a power outage and several room changes, Carson still managed to pull out a W this qual season! Congrats and enjoy your pink champagne!

[The Wright Lab @TheWrightLab]

Congrats to both our stellar 3MT contestants and a special shout out to Megan for making it into the final round! Great job guys, you’re making us proud!

[The Wright Lab @TheWrightLab]

Live update from the 3MT: Megan is heading to the finals!!

[The Wright Lab @TheWrightLab]

The Wright lab has a strong showing at this year’s 3 minute thesis competition! Loving the creative metaphors and power poses!
