...House, died suddenly on the morning of May 3. Friends said that she combined a love for athletics and academics during her time at Harvard. Hoping to attend medical school, the Pittsburgh, Pa. native studied neurobiology at the College, and worked to complete the pre-med curriculum. Outside of lab and lectures, Joo stayed involved in the medical community as a member of the Harvard Cancer Society, with which she regularly volunteered at Massachusetts General Hospital. But Joo’s other passion was rugby, the rough-and-tumble sport that her friends said she embraced...
...recent interview that he hopes the Department of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology and the Harvard Stem Cell Institute will have space in Cambridge by the beginning of 2011. But to make room, professors in the Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology will have to vacate their labs in the Sherman Fairchild Biochemistry Building by the spring of 2010.The renovated space in Fairchild and the adjacent Bauer Laboratory will be made “denser and more efficient” for the stem cell researchers. The new design, already used in the massive Northwest Science Building, separates administrative office space...
...SCIENCEJust as he roamed the halls in search of a willing mentor in the seventh grade, Greene said he would “unabashedly knock on professors’ doors” at Harvard. He asked astrophysics professor James M. Moran if he could conduct research in his lab. Moran was surprised at the time that a physics student would seek out research in astronomy. “We are up here in the observatory—it’s rare to have a physics kid tramping through looking for projects, at least back then...
...said. “It allows you to choose any research adviser and gives you so many opportunities in grad school.” Yao credits his undergraduate research advisor, Physics professor David A. Weitz, for much of his success. “My work in the Weitz lab has been the cornerstone of my undergraduate experience and has taught me about the importance of interdisciplinary research,” Yao said in the press release issued by the Radcliffe Institute. Yao said that Weitz was an “immense help” during his fellowship application process, editing...
...group says the iPS cells generated using their method are equivalent to those made using Yamanaka's strategy. In fact, they seem to flourish more robustly than the traditional iPS cells, at least in lab tests that involve regrowing certain cells found in the retina. This could lead to a potential treatment to replace damaged eye cells in conditions such as retinitis pigmentosa or macular degeneration...
