Lightning on stage

Published on December 19, 2018

Angela has been partnering with Cornell Institute of Biotechnology, Metabolomics Facility to characterize the prominent metabolites in the urine of patent and non-patent female pouched rats. As a result of this work, she was just invited to give a talk at the Cornell Institute of Biotechnology’s 35^thAnniversary Open House celebration in October. Watch her lightning talk here!
