Rachel McGinn presents her research at BMES in Orlando
The Oudin Lab has been awarded a DP2 NIH New Innovator Award to dissect the neuronal identity of tumors.
See the NIH press release and Tufts Now story.
September 2021
We welcome Wendelin Marmol to the lab for her first rotation as part of the CMDB program!
We welcome Atef Fayed, pursuing a research project in the lab for his MSc in Biology degree.
We are hiring post-doctoral researchers in both areas of the lab - the role of the ECM in chemoresistance and chemotherapy-induced metastasis and dissecting the neuronal identity of tumors. Please email Madeleine with your CV explaining your background and why you are interested in the lab.
