A 2018 lab outing and Kaitlyn's last day in the lab. She will be a great UIC GEMS student!

Almost 1.5 years of active research demanded a lab cleaning. Results: a sparkly clean lab and pizza as a reward!

Gut microbiome board game! You can have all of your favorite diseases at the same time...

We were happy to have SROP student Emmanuel Santiago (on the left) in the lab for 6 weeks.

The lab is growing! Welcome William Santus (left) and Jason Devlin (second from right)

That's Chicago: Monday snow and 30F, Thursday >72F Some well deserved frozen yogurt for the lab!
