It is with great pleasure that we are able to report that one of our talented graduate students, Fangu Wang, has been awarded an F99/K00 predoctoral to postdoctoral fellow transition award through the National Cancer Institute. The F-portion of this award will enable Ms. Wang to continue her research examining how the enzyme Sirtuin 1 regulates the stability of RNA in breast cancers. She will also use this opportunity to examine the role of aging in cancers. Upon successful completion of the F-portion, and graduation, she will be able to enter a new laboratory to conduct postdoctoral studies while funded by the K-portion of the award.
