Talking 'Bout Regeneration
Four professors in the Department of Biology — Randal Voss, Jeramiah Smith, Ann Morris, and Ashley Seifert — are undertaking the basic scientific research needed to begin to understand regeneration.
Biology Grant Will Focus on Fish, Possible Key to Human Retinal Regeneration
Biology Professor Ann Morris' lab contains approximately 200 individual fish tanks, but only one type of fish.
Women in Science Forum
In addition to being an Investigator with the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, a member of the National Academy of Sciences, and the recipient of numerous awards for her pioneering research on skin stem cells, Dr. Fuchs is also well known for her support of women in science.
This forum will be an excellent opportunity for you to hear about Dr. Fuchs’ experiences as a woman in science, to ask questions and share your own thoughts, and to interact with your peers from the Colleges of Medicine and Arts and Sciences. Please join us!
Seating is limited, so please RSVP to Ann Morris in the Department of Biology to reserve a spot: ann.morris@uky.edu.
Lunch will be provided.
