Grace Whitbread-Phee begins an 8-week Monash Summer Research Scholarship with us today. Grace's research will focus on the role of mitochondrial-associated proteins in neurodegenerative disease. She will continue with us all next year to complete an Honours research project, and will be the third member of the Neumann lab - welcome Grace!
See Grace's profile page here. This week we also welcome Megan Brewer to the Neumann lab. Megan is a visiting postdoc joining us for a couple of days from the ANZAC Institute to get some insights into the wonderful world of worms, and learn some essential laboratory techniques.
This week the Neumann Lab welcomes Caitlin Ng, who is joining us for a week of work experience. We hope to show Caitlin what a career in science is all about and give her a hands on experience to see what it involves on a day to day basis.
Brent was invited to present his research at the Tissue Architecture Meeting at the Peter Mac in Melbourne. His talk was titled: Understanding the mechanisms of axonal regeneration and axonal degeneration.
We are currently seeking to appoint a Postdoctoral Fellow to join our team. Applicants should have a PhD in cellular or molecular biology, genetics, or a related field, and previous experience with C. elegans is desirable, but not essential. If you would like more information, please contact Brent (brent.neumann@monash.edu). See more information at Monash Jobs, and the position description below. Applications close December 8th, 2015.
The Neumann lab has entered the Twittersphere!
Follow us here: @NeumannLab Brent is attending ComBio 2015 at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre (more info on the conference here: https://www.asbmb.org.au/combio2015/).
Brent will be presenting a talk on Wednesday 30th September titled: MEC-17 Protects from Axonal Degeneration, Maintaining Mitochondrial Organization and Axonal Transport. Thanks to the hard work of Joe Byrne, the Neumann lab webpage is now up and running!
