While Hurricane Irma may have delayed her a week, it didn’t stop Kait Calabro from successfully passing her qualifying exam on September 18th. Congratulations on surviving the toughest moment of graduate school, Kait. We’re so excited to call you a ‘doctoral candidate’!!…
The Graduate Program in Biomedical Sciences recognized their Fall 2016 cohort of students who have all successfully selected a mentors and research concentrations. We are happy that Tyler McCullough matched with our team (and that he brought his cute baby!) to the inaugural Mentor-Match Celebration on August 18, 2017.
Thank you Tyler for participating in the I AM STEM summer camp! This program is designed to mentor children who are underrepresented in the STEM fields and introduce them to academic concepts early in a fun and interactive way. Here is is showing them how bacteria can be used to help…
Charlene was 1 of 4 summer students to receive a perfect score on her oral presentation last week. At just 17 years young, she demonstrated an impressive grasp of AAV vector biology and it’s application to inherited retinal disease. Congratulations, Charlene!!…
Dr. Boye was recently named one of the College of Medicine’s 2016-17 University Term Professors. The University Term Professorship Program provides recognition to reward outstanding academic achievement. The College Assessment Committee identified 40 individuals from the very high quality nominations in this first cohort and she was selected among the…
We welcome everyone to come hear our talks/visit our posters at this year’s Retinal Cell and Gene Therapy Innovation Summit, ARVO and ASGCT meetings. Below is a list of all the Boye Lab projects being presented: “Identification of AAV capsid variants with enhanced retinal transduction following screening in non-human primate”.
An experimental treatment sacrifices rod cell function to save cone cells in mice, preventing retinal degeneration, researchers report. …
Boye lab research (owed mostly to graduate student Kaitlyn Calabro) to develop a dual AAV vector-mediated strategy to treat MYO7A Usher syndrome (USH1B) will be featured in this symposium.
We are proud to have our research highlighted by the University of Florida’s College of Medicine. We couldn’t achieve everything we do without our fantastic UF colleagues. Go GATORS!…
