Gordon Research Conference 2023- Lung Development, Injury, and Repair
Amber Sogge and Helen Warheit-Niemi will be presenting posters at this year’s Gordon Research Conference in Waterville Valley, NH. Dr. Zacharias will also be in attendance, as well as many other members of the pulmonary biology division at CCHMC.
CCHMC's First Annual Research Symposium
CCHMC’s first annual Research Symposium will be May 5th. Amber will be presenting her poster, “Defining cell-specific epithelial response to influenza infection in lung alveolar organoids” during the 2nd poster session. Andrea will also have her poster “Alveolar epithelial progenitor cells drive lung regeneration via dynamic changes in chromatin topography modulated by lineage-specific Nkx2-1 activity” hung up in absentia post-defense.
Andrea Toth's Thesis Defense
Andrea Toth is scheduled to defend her thesis, titled “A Multi-System Approach to Define Regulatory Mechanisms of Alveolar Progenitors in Development, Disease, and Regeneration” on April 13th at 1 PM. Her defense is open to the public (in person and Zoom), so please come out and support her. Congratulations on this massive achievement, Andrea!
Take a look back at some of Andrea’s fun moments and incredible accomplishments throughout the course of her PhD:
Update as of 4/14/23: Andrea successfully defended her thesis! Congratulations, Dr. Toth!!
