Prof. Anne Carlson joins department

The department extends a warm welcome to Prof. Anne Carlson, who joined us as a new Assistant Professor this month.  Prof. Carlson received her Ph.D. in 2006 with Bertil Hille and performed postdoctoral studies with William Zagotta at the University of Washington. Her research focuses on understanding the events that occur within the first minutes of fertilization, begining with sperm immediately before binding the egg, through events in the egg shortly after sperm have entered.

Prof. Carlson's laboratory is in 201 Life Science Annex.
