Redox Systems Biology Lab at Georgia Tech
Arina did an amazing job defending her dissertation today, entitled: “Computational analysis methodologies for evaluating metabolism changes in iPSCs undergoing differentiation”! Congratulations Dr. Nikitina! We know you’ll do amazing things during your postdoc at UC Santa Barbara.
Melissa recieved the BioE Outstanding Advisor award at this year’s graduate recruiting event! This is the second time Melissa has won this award (previously in 2012), and she will give a talk about her career journey during the annual BioE Day in May. Congratulations Melissa!
Melissa has been named to the Carol Ann and David D. Flanagan Endowed Professorship! This professorship supports eminent teacher-scholars for a five-year term. Congratulations Melissa for this great honor! Please see the BME news link here.
Our very own principal investigator Dr. Melissa Kemp has been promoted to the rank of Full Professor in the Wallace H. Coulter Department of Biomedical Engineering at Georgia Tech and Emory! This is a testament to her years of hard work in research, steadfast dedication to mentorship, and unparalleled creative vision for leading the lab in ever-expanding research directions. Please see the BME news link here.
From all of us past and present members of the lab, we’d like to congratulate you on this tremendous achievement. We are privileged to work with you as an innovative scientist, and thankful to have you as an amazing mentor. Here’s to continuing to advance the field of computational systems biology!
A huge congratulations to Josh Lewis for successfully defending his PhD thesis today! His thesis is titled “Genome-scale modeling of redox metabolism and therapeutic response in radiation-resistant tumors”. Awesome work Dr. Lewis, and we wish him the best of success as he prepares to return to medical school!
Kemp lab is on a roll! Congratulations to Andre Norfleet for being awarded a $4000 Herbert P. Haley Fellowship!
Josh Lewis was recognized as the 2019 Outstanding PhD Student in Bioinformatics! He will be getting a $2000 award for his awesome work.
Bryce McKinney won a silver medal in the Atlanta Public Schools Regional Science Fair for his project entitled “Bioelectric and redox characteristics of mESCs along cardiomyocyte differentiation”. Bryce is one of our Project ENGAGES students, mentored by Andre Norfleet. Congratulations Bryce!
