It is that time of the year when we welcome the first cohort of PhD students doing their rotation projects in Anderson Lab. Caitlin from Oregon and Lieselotte from Belgium have joined us through the Microbiology PhD program at OSU. In addition, we are also joined by our newest undergraduate researcher, Mehrukh Sofi, who is pursuing her bachelors in Neuroscience at OSU. Welcome, everyone, and hope you all have a fantastic time in the lab!
