Excellent students are an integral part of any successful research program, and I have been extremely fortunate in the opportunity to work with a terrific group of students who constantly re-ignite my passion for research and also keep me on my toes! I believe in a real team effort in my lab where we all support each other and have fun together in and out of the lab. Please contact any of the past or present EEL members for a confidential assessment of what life is like in the EEL.
