“It is hard to put into words the extent of the damage being done to the US research enterprise, which is of almost incalculable value to both the nation itself and the wider world… An assault on science and scientists anywhere is an assault on science and scientists

OBI Sprouts Grant awardees, Bangjie Wang and Rahulraj Mishra, gave updates on their research at today's OBI Research Day. OBI provides Sprouts awards to support trainees exploring novel ideas that are not easily covered by other funding sources. bit.ly/42ko8UE

Congratulations to Irvin Garza who was awarded a UT Southwestern O'Donnell Brain Institute Sprouts grant. Irvin is engineering novel #AAVs for neuronal, neuromuscular, and muscular diseases using machine guided learning. Sprouts grants support trainees exploring new directions in #brain research.

Excited to be in San Francisco this week sharing an update on my dissertation work and how long read sequencing from PacBio has enabled accelerated discovery of engineered AAV capsids. #PacBioPRISM

Congratulations to our MODTS student Irvin Garza !
