Thank you to everyone who attended the fifth annual Research Day!

This year's event was extra special. We featured talks from three CCBBI alumni, Dr. Charlie Ferris, former post-doc with Dr. Baldwin Way, Dr. Paul Scotti, graduate student with Drs. Julie Golomb and Andy Leber, and Dr. Stephanie Aghamoosa, graduate student with Dr. Ruchika Prakash; and a Keynote Address by Dr. Natasha Rajah, a leader in the field of Alzheimer's Disease, with a focus on the role of sex, gender, and social determinants. In addition, we had four oral presentations from students and 20 poster presentations from students and research staff.
