Congratulations to Shawn and Kerry for receiving the NASA Space Grant Fellowship!
joanna.l.kelleyCongratulations to Shawn Trojahn and Kerry McGowan for receiving the WSU NASA Space Grant Fellowship! Shawn’s project will be studying muscle atrophy and serum factors involved in reduced muscle atrophy. Kerry will be studying the regulation of hydrogen sulfide and evolution of related transcription factor binding sites.
Back from AGBT 2019
joanna.l.kelleyJoanna presented on our brown bear projects at AGBT 2019 in Marco Island, Florida #AGBT19. The meeting was filled with interesting biology, including lots of single cell genomics and spatial profiling. Here’s a great summary meeting highlights, and Joanna’s talk was in the “memorable talks” mentions! https://www.decibio.com/2019/03/03/decibio-highlights-agbt2019-advances-genome-technology/

Scott Hotaling named Raelyn Cole Editorial Fellows for Limnology & Oceanography Letters!
joanna.l.kelleyHappy New Year 2019!
joanna.l.kelleyHappy New Year! We are looking forward to an exciting 2019 filled with lots of fun and interesting science! Stay tuned for some exciting announcements!

joanna.l.kelleyAlexia Gee joins the Kelley Lab!
joanna.l.kelleyAlexia Gee has arrived in Pullman! We are very happy Alexia has decided to join the lab as a masters student. She has already started working with the bears on campus. Check out the WSU Bear Center if you’re curious to learn more about the bears!
John Coffin visits from KSU
joanna.l.kelleyJohn is a second-year PhD student in Biology at Kansas State University working with Dr. Michael Tobler. He hopes to understand how organisms adapt to novel environments using a variety of evolutionary and computational approaches. His current Ph.D. research examines the mechanisms and evolution of heavy metal tolerance in Western mosquitofish (Gambusia affinis) populations living in streams contaminated with mine outflow. John visited us here at WSU in June to collaborate on work to understand gene expression patterns that may allow these mosquitofish to live in contaminated environments.
Congratulations to Scott Hotaling – Winner of Showcase 2018 Postdoctoral Travel Award!
joanna.l.kelleyCongratulations to Scott Hotaling – Winner of the WSU Showcase 2018 Postdoctoral Travel Award! Scott will use the travel award to attend ASLO as an invited speaker in the session “SS17: Living Downstream from Shrinking Glaciers: Understanding and predicting the hydrology, geomorphology, ecology and biogeochemistry of glacier-fed streams”. Congratulations!
