Tune in tomorrow, Saturday July 13th, at 10:35am to the Saturday Light Brigade radio show! Members of our Gene Team will be sharing their experiences this summer! We are so proud of them and are thrilled that some of them will be telling their stories on the radio.
Congratulations to Tera Levin, assistant professor at @PittBioSci, for being named a 2024 PATH Investigator by @BWFUND! 🎉 She'll receive $500K over 5 years to advance her research on the evolution of infectious diseases and host-pathogen interactions. pitt.ly/4aMnNuC
Now a junior in the Swanson School of Engineering, former Gene Team student, Oday Abushaban, credits his pre-college STEM experience with his post-secondary STEM success now. ow.ly/vyiG50RZkNm @PittTweet @PittEngineering @pittbiooutreach #STEM #Engineering #CollegeAccess
🚨Big news: Gene Team has earned a first-of-its kind accreditation through @MSAaccredited, elevating the value of out-of-school experiences in student success! @STEMPushNetwork @PittDietrich @PittTweet
The Gene Team had a very busy day of experiments! They are working on a project from the @RZ_Lab to identify bacteria from frog slime and test if it can inhibit fungal growth. They’ve already made great progress and we can’t wait to see all of their data and conclusions!
There are 8 hours left to give! Donations will support initiatives such as undergrad research, travel for underrepresented undergrads to national meetings, and K-12 outreach efforts
