Rounding off AY25-26 with many highlights including 3 Lee Lab graduates, a terrific undergrad research CURE class, and my MS student winning a Best Poster award at a conference! Also got to serve on a career panel with a Nobelist who was supportive and encouraging of our student-powered research. 🙏

Hannah is a student I was honored to have in my lab for 3 years (and who is now at the Allen Institute!). Any gift to support our grad and undergrad student research programs, microscopy facilities, and more would go towards strengthening our future STEM workforce. wwugiveday.wwu.edu/giving-day/9...
