The Krahn Lab is Growing!
After a busy first semester, we are excited to have a solid group in 2024! Welcoming rotation student Ahsan Ullah, graduate student Joshua Weiss, and undergraduates Kaia Klenberg and Chris Decker as new additions!
A 2 for 1 for SELENOM
Congratulations to Lance Nunes and Antavius Cain for Elucidating the role of SELENOM in their recent review in Antioxidants, which was also featured in the Scholarly Community Encyclopedia.
Amino Acid Rockstars!
We always take an opportunity to celebrate! Halloween costumes this year were Amino Acid Rockstars featuring the Selenocysteine Star, Proline and Tryptophan.
Lab is open!
With minor hiccups along the way, equipment is set up and ready to go. Thanks to Antavius Cain for all the help to make this happen sooner than expected!
Welcome to
Antavius Cain!
Without even officially starting, I had an opportunity to take on Ant as a rotation student. Best major decision as a new PI! The extra set of hands to get everything set up was a bonus. It is his expertise and knowledge in mammalian cell culture that I am excited to see in action, bringing some of our lab projects to life!
Opening August 1, 2023!
Lab is getting packed up, ready to send to UGA!
