Sarah Belanger, Brown University, Week 2
This week, I began taking on more responsibilities and working more independently. One of the highlights was being trusted to clean, stain, and wash our cells with little to no supervision. After inducing primary senescence in the cells last week, we were ready to take a select few cultures to stain and image. The other […]
Benjamin Carpenter, OAIRE Week 2
Hi everybody! I’m Ben and I just finished my second week at OAIRE. This week unfortunately, much like last week, wasn’t as fast as I was hoping that it would be. I did a lot of grunt work around the lab, and a project we were going to start working on was postponed due to […]

Hugh Hatcher LASP Internship Week 2
Hi everyone! This week at LASP was both challenging and rewarding, since my supervisor was away at a conference and most of the undergraduates were absent. With fewer hands on deck, CJ and I stepped up and actually ran several iterations of our ongoing cut-back experiment almost entirely on our own. Over the course of […]
