Megan comes to our lab all the way from Providence, Rhode
Island, where she earned her Bachelor’s of Science degree in Biology and
Bachelor’s of Arts degree in Psychology.
As an undergraduate and post graduation Megan worked in the Spinette Lab
at Rhode Island College, investigating
the effects of inactivation of the E3 ubiquitin ligase UFD2a in skeletal muscle
growth and differentiation. This work gave her a strong background in muscle
biology, making her a great fit for our lab. Megan has fallen in love with the
Pacific Northwest, and along with her fiancée Paul and their dog Lucky, is
enjoying all the hiking, biking, and great food it has to offer.
