week 4

Last week was a very slow week because we did not get to do much lab work due to events that took place outside the lab. On Monday we attended a seminar on programmed cell death given by Dr. Guy Salvesen which helped me better understand the Neutrophil project. Then on Wednesday we had to review an article on cell death for the students in Bridge program. On Thursday we attended postdoctoral retreat in which graduates students and research professionals gave presentations on the projects that they were working on. It was a great learning experience watching them present their data and I plan to use what I learned on my future presentations.
