Tremendous loss for @pennbioeng, we will miss you dearly @CreminsLab. So excited to see what you’ll do next - you might’ve just recruited a future Nobel winner @washumedicine.
WashU Medicine continues to unite the world’s most innovative researchers. We’re proud to introduce Jennifer Phillips-Cremins, PhD, to our team — a global leader in 3D genome structure and its role in brain development and healthy function.
