Really proud to watch Dan Barson successfully defend his PhD work today! Dan’s work exemplified the wonderful possibilities of collaborative science. The experimental strategies developed as part of his co-mentored thesis (between the Higley and Crair labs) have become central to our ongoing and future efforts, and I can’t wait to follow his accomplishments as his career continues to flourish!
