I don't much like seeing myself on camera but I wanted to post this because, as a father, I am incredibly proud of my son Ian McLachlan. He is the multimedia specialist for @TulaneMedicine and produced this. Made me look decent. Also, science IS fun. youtube.com/watch?v=-cnGlk…
Congratulations to Noel Jacquet, a doctoral candidate in the LSU Health Shreveport Pharmacology, Toxicology, and Neuroscience department, who recently passed her dissertation proposal titled “Deciphering the Role of ADCK1 in the Tumorigenesis of Hepatocellular Carcinoma.”
Pleased to share one of our works on HPV16. HPV16 (among other highrisk HPVs) is responsible for almost all cases of cervical cancer globally.
Fantastic work by Ashely Wilkins in @vacuole_grown’s lab.. shows how membrane lipid composition impacts Legionella growth in macrophages. She’s graduating in May 2024 & presenting at the upcoming GARI Gordon Conference.. if case you’re looking, she’d be a great postdoc hire!
