Additionally, they havecontinued to strengthen their collaboration through researcher exchange. A SEAS graduate from2012 is currently spending one year in Professor Mierzwa's lab at Poli-USP as a research fellow.She is working closely with a doctoral student that is beginning his dissertation research andplans to spend time in the Vecitis Lab at Harvard in the future.
