Outstanding presentations by lab undergrads at UAB Summer Research Expo!!! Prince Mosley, SURE-GM scholar from TUSKEGEE UNIVERSITY mentored by Shelby Nyree Lauzon, Ananya Theneti, Presidential Honors Fellow mentored by Gabbi Prince, and Molly Reynolds, RAMP-UP scholar UAB SciTech Honors







This story is one of several from our time at UAB. I want to thank my past and present lab members for contributing, especially Verdion Martina🇨🇼 for starting it as my first lab member. Unpacking takes priority over writing a full summary, but I want to highlight my favorite findings:


Happy news #3, our review co-authored by Gabbi Prince, Verdion Martina🇨🇼, Molly Reynolds is out Trends in Genetics! We describe recent characterizations of the functional and molecular changes that neurons undergo across postnatal development across the animal kingdom, with a focus on🐭


Congrats to Dalton Patterson, Sharrell Greene, and Gabbi Prince for designing the cover image! Check out the review article in the issue by Gabbi, Molly Reynolds, Verdion Martina🇨🇼 and myself!

I'm happy to announce that I will join UMBC Biology as an assistant professor this August. I will be part of the first UM-FIRST cohort. The Muñoz-Ballester lab will study how astrocytes response to injury is modulated by sex, with a special focus on mild traumatic brain injury


1/🧵 I’m excited to share the next portion of my dissertation work examining alternative splicing in a rare disease is now on bioRxiv! 🎉 biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Thanks to my coauthors Timothy C Howton Tabea Soelter Brittany 'Never tell me the odds' Lasseigne, PhD and also Jordan Whitlock for generating this great dataset



I'm thrilled to announce that I've been awarded the NARSAD Young Investigator Grant from BBRFoundation! I am grateful for this incredible opportunity and can’t wait to embark on this exciting journey!
