Congratulations to Kevin Cope, whose photo was recently selected for the cover of The Plant Cell, October 2019. Check out Kevin’s recent publication “The Ectomycorrhizal Fungus Laccaria bicolor Produces Lipochitooligosaccharides and Uses the Common Symbiosis Pathway to Colonize Populus RootsRoots.” Kevin graduated from the CMB Program in 2018. He conducted his thesis research in Jean-Michel Ané’s lab.
We’ve had a busy year, and we’re excited to share some of the highlights with you! A big thank you to all who have donated their time, money, and stories to the CMB Program. You can find the 2019 Alumni Newsletter here.
Congratulations to Adam Bayless, CMB Alumnus, whose paper was recently published at PNAS. Adam is currently working as a Post-Doc at Tufts University. He is working with the Mike Levin and Kelly McLauglin Labs which study how bioelectricity (changes in membrane potential) impact body pattern, development and tissue regeneration in planarians and Xenopus.
