CERTL Program
Well, I made it into the CERTL Program, as you could probably guess from the title. It's a 6-week research program with Wake Forest University and Baptist Medical Center. This summer, it runs from June 13th to July 22nd.
My faculty mentor in the Program is Steven Kridel, PhD., a member of the cancer biology department. He, along with his lab-tech Frances Wheeler, graduate student Joy Little and myself is trying to find a way to either treat or prevent cancer. Their work deals primarily with the enzyme Fatty Acid Synthase, and expanding upon the idea that by inhibiting FAS production, tumor cells themselves can be inhibited or killed.
More will surely come later as I actually start to do research with the program.
