Jonathan Amezquita (PREP@UCD 2018 cohort) just presented his exit seminar at the University of Washington, with Dan, Carole, and mentor JoAnne Engebrecht watching on zoom. Beautifully executed and an impressive amount of very cool work on the regulation of sensory neurons in C. elegans. 

You can read the publication from the first part of his dissertation at PLoS Genetics, 2024 Dec 13;20(12):e1011496. A second manuscript is in review.

Jonathan, you've come a long way from Macalester, PREP@UC Davis, and the Engebrecht lab. We are so very proud of you. Congratulations!
