11/19/2013  Marc visited Minneapolis/St. Paul to give a seminar at the U of Minnesota.  He also got to visit Cathy Hass (Ph.D. 2012).  Cathy is doing product and process development at Bioamber in Minneapolis.  She has found working in industry to be exciting and is using knowledge and experimental approaches from a number of disciplines including: molecular biology, protein chemistry, metabolic pathways.  Cathy is living in downtown Minneapolis.  (Picture of the Minneapolis skyline at night was taken from the top level of Cathy and Matt's apartment building.)

 

9/16/2013  Wold lab emerita Anne Dickson visited.  Anne (Ph. D. 2008) works with Life Technologies and was in Iowa CIty for a flow cytometry conference.  She also gave a talk about working in the biotech industry to the department.  Anne  was able to stop by the lab for a short visit before traveleling back to Oregon.  Picture at left: Anne with Roman. Picture at right:  Anne working in the lab from before she graduated.

                                     

 

9/14/2013 Marc and Ran attended the Cold Spring Harbor Meeting on Eukaryotic DNA Replication & Genome Maintenance.  Ran had lots of business at her poster and was talking the entire session.  (Picture of Marc courtesy  of CSH.)

                  

 

8/24/2013 The Department of Biochemistry at the University of Iowa celebrates its 65th anniversary with a retreat and banquet. Ran presenting her research at the 65th anniversary retreat (with thanks to Dr. Bob Roskoski for taking the picture)
