ALT A graduate student discusses her research with a faculty member at the 2026 GDCB Research Day.
We are hiring (tenure track)! The faculty member should use model organisms such as zebrafish, Drosophila and/or human cell and organoid systems to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the cell and developmental biology of human health and disease.
I hear you. For some delusional reason I thought the first week of the semester would be a good time to get serious work done.
My current project is studying autophagy in plants to understand the mechanism of how different genotypes and mutations affecting autophagy expression respond to environmental stressors. Outside of the lab I enjoy drawing, crocheting, and watching shows in my free time.
New lab member: Hello, my name is Manasa Donepudi and I'm currently a master's student within the IGG program at Iowa State University. I grew up in St. Louis and have done my bachelor's at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign with a major in Integrative Biology.
