TEXAS A&M GENETICS AND GENOMICS PHD PROGRAM OVERVIEW
IN THE SPOTLIGHT
Congratulations to PhD candidate, Ana from the Dr. Threadgill lab, for being selected to receive the Spring 2024 GGSA Conference Award!
Ana received this award for attending The Allied Genetics Conference (TAGC) 2024 in Washington, DC from March 6-10, 2024, where she had the opportunity to present a poster titled ‘Understanding the reproductive aberrations caused by the mouse t-haplotype’. Every four years, TAGC comes along to unite the different research done in the various genetics model organisms. We’re so proud that Ana had the chance to attend and present in such an important conference and we’re excited to continue supporting her professional development wherever she presents next!
Congratulations to PhD candidate, Ari from the Dr. Singh lab, for being selected to receive the Spring 2024 GGSA Conference Award!
Ari received this award for attending the Texas Genetics Society (TGS) 2024 in College Station, TX from March 21-23, 2024, where he had the opportunity to present his project titled ‘Consequences of IPA isoform loss in multiple myeloma’. TGS is a regional conference where undergraduates students, graduate students and faculty come together to discuss their advances in Genetics. We’re so proud of that Ari had the chance to attend and participate of such important conference and we’re excited to continue supporting his professional development wherever he presents next!
Exciting News!!
Please join us in congratulating our #TAMUGENE Ph.D. Candidate, Hannah Carter, from Dr. Weston Porter Lab! Hannah is one of the 32 recipients from 27 prestigious institutions around the world to be selected for an ASPIRE grant!! She received an $80,000 research grant from the Susan G. Komen Foundation to study sirtuins, a type of protein known to reduce signs of aging that may also play a role in breast cancer metastasis. The two-year grant, called A Supplement to Promote Inclusion for Research Excellence (ASPIRE), aims to increase the diversity of the breast cancer research workforce by providing funding to trainees from communities historically minoritized and marginalized in research. As supplemental funding, the award is given to trainees who work with established breast cancer scientists.
