Jariel spent the Summer with us through the UVA Summer Research Internship Program. He learned about cell culture and nutrient sensing and he got to show his research in a presentation format to the rest of the program at UVA. Jariel not only worked hard but brought all the good vibes to the lab. We loved having you here Jariel!
