Congrats to Shahina Alibekova for receiving a SOURCE Award this summer from Syracuse University on the role of vimentin and lateral line formation. This work is taking off from a great foundation set by a previous undergraduate Alison Gerety, who just won an award for outstanding research as a Biology student! Congrats Alison! Alison was also a previous SOURCE Scholar.
