Dr. R. Glen Uhrig (Principal Investigator)
|
I am a driven and passionate scientist interested in training motivated students and post-doctoral fellows. I aim to mentor students and post-doctoral fellows to develop critical and creative thinking skillsets and to confidently engage in research independently. Those joining my lab can expect to learn molecular biological, biochemical and advanced proteomic skills applicable to both academics and industry. In my spare time I enjoy staying fit and being outdoors as much as possible.
