Going to the @BMESociety Annual Meeting in Baltimore next week? Check out these @FischbachLab presentations and posters! And stop by the @CornellBME booth to learn more about our graduate MEng and PhD programs

And we got to try the Gewürztraminer harvest straight from the vine at HJW!

We got to enjoy the beautiful weather over the weekend as part of the inaugural @FischbachLab wine tour. There’s lots to do and see in the Finger Lakes besides science! Apple picking is up next…

Congrats to @BritSchutrum for a fantastic defense of her PhD thesis examining the role of hyaluronic acid in breast cancer invasion! We have been so fortunate to have Brittany in our lab as a scientist, mentor, and friend #PhDone 🎊

Congrats to Dr. @Matt_AWhit for a fantastic defense of his thesis on the protective role of bone mineral density in breast cancer metastasis. We’ve been fortunate to have such an outstanding scientist and human in our lab! – at Ithaca, NY

Fischbach Lab bringing in the holiday season in style 🎉

Fischbach Lab craft night has never smelled so good! Making candles was a great exercise to put our lab basics to the test 🧑‍🔬🕯️

Be sure to stop by posters from our talented undergraduate students:

Congrats to our PhD candidate Jack Crowley for giving a fantastic presentation on the 3D organization of the genome at the @CornellCNF Annual Meeting! #cnfam23
