The Gaffney lab would like to welcome two new members to our research team. Robert Kwapich is participating in a Visiting Research Graduate Traineeship Program from the University of Silesia in Katowice, Poland, and will be working on some of our newest research in investigating the diversity of the microbiome in health and disease. Dr. Yao Fu is our newest post-doctoral fellow. She is a familiar face at OMRF as she joins our group by way of Dr. Tim Griffin’s Lab. We are delighted that she has accepted the challenge of investigating 3D genome architecture and how they influence gene expression and disease phenotypes. The Gaffney Lab is thrilled to have you both Robert and Dr. Fu.
