Nikhila passed her Qualifying exam! Congrats and I can’t wait to see what she does next. Keep your eyes peeled some cool stuff coming out of this Hehnly Lab Grad student in the next couple of months!

We had a great winter to spring rotation with Peter Raymond-Smiedy in the lab! He worked on Cenexin’s role as a scaffold for the mitotic kinase, Polo Like Kinase 1 (PLK1) where he got to perform some sweet microscopy and live cell imaging. He even did our first virtual lab meeting on zoom!
Peter worked closely with our lab postbac scholar Michael Bates (on left in photo below) where they created with the help of Judy Freshour (lab manager) a CRISPR cenexin-null line. Way to go Peter and Mike!

Great seminar and defense! The Hehnly Lab couldn’t be more proud. Off for drinks at Oh My Darling!
Lindsay finishing up her awesome Thesis seminar, Congrats Lindsay!
Abbi won 3rd place at the BioMaterials Institute poster session! Nikhila also presented a great poster and I was excited to see both students engaging with scientists across campus. Great job!
