We bid you adieu, Holly Vickery!

David Lab researcher Holly Vickery is off to graduate school, and the David Lab wishes her farewell. Holly worked on multiple projects as a research scientist in the David Lab. One project was focused on measuring the cellular repair efficiency of MutY variants, while another project revolved around optimizing a purification technique of MUTYH for higher yields and purity. Holly is moving on to graduate school as part of the Chemistry and Chemical Biology Program at the University of California San Francisco. We’ll miss you here at the David Lab, Holly, but we’re glad to see you move forward. Good luck at UCSF!

  • Artificial reef designed by MIT engineers could protect marine life, reduce storm damage March 27, 2024
    Engineers designed an 'architected' reef that can mimic the wave-buffering effects of natural reefs while providing pockets for marine life. The sustainable and cost-saving structure could dissipate more than 95 percent of incoming wave energy using a small fraction of the material normally needed.
  • Persistent hiccups in a far-off galaxy draw astronomers to new black hole behavior March 27, 2024
    Astronomers have found that a previously quiet black hole, which sits at the center of a galaxy about 800 million light years away, has suddenly erupted, giving off plumes of gas every 8.5 days before settling back to its normal, quiet state.
  • Robot, can you say 'cheese'? March 27, 2024
    What would you do if you walked up to a robot with a human-like head and it smiled at you first? You'd likely smile back and perhaps feel the two of you were genuinely interacting. But how does a robot know how to do this? Or a better question, how does it know to get […]
  • Researchers turn back the clock on cancer cells to offer new treatment paradigm March 27, 2024
    Scientists reversed an aggressive cancer, reverting malignant cells towards a more normal state. Rhabdoid tumors are an aggressive cancer which is missing a key tumor suppressor protein. Scientists discovered that removing a second protein from cancer cells already experiencing tumor suppressor loss can reverse cancer cell identity.
  • Making long-term memories requires nerve-cell damage March 27, 2024
    Just as you can't make an omelet without breaking eggs, scientists have found that you can't make long-term memories without DNA damage and brain inflammation.
