After 2+ years in the lab, we wish our dear colleague Shelby Schenck a fond farewell as she leaves to pursue her PhD in Immunology at UVA. While we're sad to say good-bye, we are so proud of her and can't wait to see all she will accomplish in the future! #womeninscience

It's been just over 2 years since we joined Twitter. The idea was Shyam Somasundaram's, who died suddenly just a few days after we signed up. While this anniversary is bittersweet, we continue to honor his legacy through our research. And we miss him dearly. #MyTwitterversary
