Hi!!Please take a break from surfing the Internet for a moment—do you know what exciting event happened in May? The Xu Lab at UIC's College of Medicine celebrated the graduation of three PhD students at once! Huge congratulations to all of them!@Diabetes_UIC @thisisUIC @UIHealth
🎓 Huge congratulations to @vtorre26 for successfully defending her PhD thesis! Her work explored estrogen signaling in the vlVMH and its role in regulating adipose tissue function. We’re so proud of Dr. Torres and can’t wait to see what she does next!
Our Metabolic Core is finally up and running! This specialized facility will help us better measure food and water intake, energy metabolism, fat metabolism, exercise preferences, and temperature adaptation in rodent. Keep fingers cross! #Research #MetabolicCore ##Innovation
🎉 Exciting news from our lab! Congratulations to our PI @XuPingwen and our friend and colleague @Jiang_Lab, who have been promoted to Associate Professor with Indefinite Tenure!! Well-deserved recognition for their impactful work! 🏆
Some of our presentations in the Online Poster Session 2/6
Congratulations to Dr. Shi! Wishing you happiness and success on the next step of your scientific journey!
