Dr. Gerdon was fortunate to travel to Girona, Spain to represent the group at the Gordon Research Conference in Biomineralization in August. What a great conference!

It was amazing to learn more about the biology, methodology, ocean chemistry, and organisms involved in biomineralization. The research community was very welcoming and Dr. Gerdon was able to make good connections for the group. Dr. Gerdon presented a poster on: Effects of Rheological Parameters on Mineral Formation in a Microfluidic Device by Aren Gerdon, Aimee Sanford, and Geoff Conklin Here are some shots of Girona and...

Researcher Krista Meserve ’18 pipettes two different experiments into a 96-well plate. The well-plate will then be placed into a plate reader, which measures the absorbance of each well every minute. After the data has been analyzed, we will be able to see which (if any) strands of DNA best promoted...

A big thanks to all those who made it out and to those who wished they could. It is great to see so many research alumni to hear their stories of success in the Boston area. It is equally great to hear from those in Connecticut, Jamaica, Atlanta, and elsewhere who couldn’t make it back to Fenway for a summer Thursday night. Keep the stories rolling in and, by request, I’ll be reaching out more often to keep you involved in the Emmanuel...
