Kathryn and Sveta attend SDB 2023
Kathryn and Sveta presented posters at the Annual Society for Developmental Biology meeting in Chicago. First time for deep dish pizza!
Kathryn attends the GRC: Endothelial Cell Phenotypes in Health and Disease 2022
Kathryn presented a poster titled: “Primary Cilia as Endocardial Mechanosensors during Heart Development“.
Kathryn and Faith attend NESDB 2022
Kathryn and Faith went to NESDB 2022 to present their poster: “Primary Cilia as Mechanosensors during Heart Valvulogenesis”
Kathryn co-first authors review in Nature Cardiology Rev.
The review, ‘A change of heart: new roles for cilia in cardiac development and disease’, can be found here. Congrats Kathryn, and her co-first author Lydia Djenoune!
Kathryn is Awarded NIH F31
Kathryn scored in the top 10th percentile for her F31 Ruth L. Kirschstein Predoctoral Individual National Research Service Award proposal titled “Mechanical and Transcriptional Roles for Primary Cilia during Heart Development”, receiving 3 years of funding from NIH-NHLBI. Congrats!
Lab attends Yale Genetics Retreat 2020
The Genetics Retreat this year was held virtually through zoom. Both Kathryn and Syndi were able to present a flashtalk on their research. Kathryn: “Primary Cilia Mediate Mechanical and Genetic Signals During Heart Valve Formation”, Syndi: “Selective Maintenance of RNF20-complex mediated histone ubiquitination is required for heart development”.
Lab Attends Yale Genetics Retreat 2019
Syndi and Kathryn both presented posters (Syndi: ”The RNF20 complex is dynamically regulated during heart development”, Kathryn: ”The role of cilia and shear stress on vasculogenesis”), while Dr. Brueckner gave a short talk in the faculty session.
Kathryn attends FASEB 2019
Kathryn attended a week long conference in Snowmass, CO for FASEB’s The Biology of Cilia and Flagella Conference 2019.
Kathryn joins the Lab!
Kathryn is coming to Yale from the lab of Alex Schier at Harvard University, where she spent 2 years as a research associate following her graduation from Smith College. Welcome Kathryn!
