A New Home at Boston College
In the fall of 2022, the Das Lab relocated from the University of Tennessee-Knoxville to Boston College's Department of Biology. Now located in 501B Higgins Hall, we are continuint our work on cell polarity and cytokinesis.

Congratulations, Dr. Onwubiko!
Das Lab alumna Udo Onwubiko, Ph.D. '22, joined the lab of Dr. Amy Maddox at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill as a postdoctoral fellow in the fall of 2022.
