Recent research achievements from the Giessen lab.

Dr. Meredith Skiba will join the faculty of the Departments of Biological Chemistry and Pharmacology at U-M Medical School in 2025.

A new collaborative study, examined the interaction between three naturally occurring gases — nitric oxide (NO), oxygen, and H2S — during generation of new blood vessels, called angiogenesis.

The Giessen lab publishes a research article in Nature Communications.

An article about a program to promote faculty diversity co-authored by Ruma Banerjee and two research articles by Banerjee lab members and their U-M collaborators have come into view this week.

Assistant Professor Yan Zhang of the Department of Biological Chemistry at U-M Medical School is the recipient of an NSF CAREER award.

PhD student Basila Moochickal Assainar is the first author of a research article in Nature Communications.

Known as the Health Equity Literature Archive, Chelsea Fisk’s goal was to cultivate empathy and understanding for people from different backgrounds and diverse identities by providing employees with access to diverse literature. The innovative pilot led by clinical researcher Chelsea Fisk served as a form of DEI education that was free to use, self-paced and barrier-free.

A study from the University of Michigan Medical School developed off-switches useful for improving the safety of the Type I-C/Cas3 gene editor.

PhD student Mason Myers of the Zhang lab at U-M Medical School is a lead author of "Exploiting activation and inactivation mechanisms in type I-C CRISPR-Cas3 for genome-editing applications."

Congratulations and best wishes to Audrey Seasholtz, PhD, Professor Emerita of Biological Chemistry and Research Professor Emerita, Michigan Neuroscience Institute.

U-M Medical School researchers Ryan Baldridge, PhD, and Billy Tsai, PhD, are recipients of a $1.3 million grant from the W. M. Keck Foundation.

Experience gave him a new appreciation for interprofessional patient care
