This past Saturday we had the opportunity to share our research with a select group of members and friends of the NW Mitochondrial Research Guild. The event, aptly named Mito Science Night, included a tour around the different labs in the Mitochondrial Program: the Morgan/Sedensky lab, the Hahn lab and the Quintana lab. Guests were […]
Step by step… oh baby… That was the first line of a 1990 cheesy song… but step by step is the way the Quintana lab is growing. We are really really excited to announce the new additions to the lab: Dr. Irene Bolea is joining the lab as a postdoctoral fellow. She will be the force behind our experiments […]
Recently I had the opportunity to collaborate with KOMO TV and Seattle Children’s Hospital to help explain what we do and what are our goals in the Quintana lab. We like to do our best to raise awareness of mitochondrial disease! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x77EMtGYI4w&feature=youtu.be
Early last month we attended the 2014 UMDF Symposium , held in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The UMDF does a great job in providing quite a unique opportunity to promote the interaction between mitochondrial disease researchers and clinicians with families and patients. This year was not an exception and we really enjoyed the 4-day meeting under a […]
A few months ago, the Quintana lab participated in the 2014 edition of the Neuroscience’s Frontiers Webinars, organized by both CERFA and SRUK, the associaciations of Spanish Scientists in Germany and the UK, respectively. It was a really interesting webinar, with speakers from all over the world, and it was a great opportunity for the […]
So, the Quintana Lab keeps celebrating 🙂 This week we have just added a new member to the team, Kelsey Montgomery, our brand-new technician-geneticist (or geneticist-technician). She got her BSc from UGA (Genetics) and she has gained very valuable experience working in a BioTech. We are fortunate she decided to join us 🙂 She has […]
This past Friday Jessica Hui was in charge of showing her work in the Quintana Lab at the Annual UW Undergraduate Research Symposium. The event was a blast with thousands of undergraduates presenting their contributions to science in a formal-but-relaxed, setting. Overall, a great experience and the perfect way to get the feet wet on their scientific career. […]
