I recently joined the Ravits lab after working for 14 years in a developmental biology lab at UCSD. In addition to managing the biorepository and serving as a lab manger I will also be conducting research. Outside of the lab I am an outdoor enthusiast enjoying hiking and camping, spending time with my family and pets, traveling, gardening and exercising. I graduated with a Ph.D. from the Karl-Franzens University in Graz, Austria and continued as a Postdoctoral Fellow at Mount Sinai Hospital, New York.
