Flanagan Lab Alumni Jente Lu, Chesca Barrios, and Amanda Dickson, current member Jami Nourse along with Lisa Flanagan and BioMiNT collaborator, Abe Lee, recently published “Advancing practical usage of microtechnology: a study of the functional consequences of dielectrophoresis on neural stem cells” in Integrative Biology.  Many thanks to our collaborator, Abe Leeand our dedicated PI, Lisa Flanagan for their tireless assistance and guidance!

The abstract and full text of the article can be found at http://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlelanding/2012/ib/c2ib20171b#!divAbstract.  Happy reading!

Congratulations to Nawas on the completion of his CIRM Bridges to Stem Cells Research internship.  Nawas presented his finding on the expression of glycosolation enzymes in neural stem cells at the Stem Cell Symposium at CSU Fullerton and at the CIRM BSCR Conference in San Francisco.

The Flanagan Lab welcomes two new students: Boss Povieng, a Junior Biology major, and John Louie, a SURF-IT participant.

Congratulations to Chesca Barrios!  Her UROP poster was awarded the Robert Ernst Prize in Biological Sciences during the Undergraduate Research Competition.  Well done!
