Welcoming postdoc Emily Bierbaum

Emily Bierbaum joined the Varney Lab as a POE postdoc! Emily just completed her PhD at the University of Tulsa, where she worked on Brook Salamanders to investigate how the genes of the visual system change in expression across metamorphosis. Emily wrote a fantastic application, and we are excited to have her aboard. She will be pursuing work with the ostracods from sulfuric hot springs, asking how development interfaces with their ability to survive extreme environments! Can't wait to see what she gets up to!
