In , Weill Cornell also partnered with Bright Horizons, a company that offers emergency childcare, to help parents make it to work even if their regular childcare falls through. And more recently, Dr. Randi Silver , an associate dean at the Weill Cornell Graduate School of Medical Sciences, faculty director of the office of postdoctoral affairs and a professor of physiology and biophysics at Weill Cornell Medical College. Thanks to the Revson Fellowship's support, Dr. Beguelin said that she's been able to produce research on lymphoma and an enzyme called EZH2, which is being targeted in clinical trials.
She presented some of her recent findings in two different meetings, the first lymphoma biology meeting of the American Society of Hematology in Colorado Springs, and another meeting on epigenetics and chromatin in Cold Spring Harbor last year. She is currently writing a research article that she hopes to publish soon. In conducting this research, the fellowship's funds allowed her to more thoroughly and powerfully conduct her research project, performing experiments that she otherwise wouldn't have been able to afford, and also attend important meetings, including the annual congress of the European Hematology Association, where her abstract was selected for oral presentation.
At them, she's met other scientists who have turned into collaborating partners, and has learned new techniques that she can apply to her own lab work.
Meyer also gained a professional advantage from meeting other scientists, including those that Revson connected her with as part of their annual meeting for fellows. Since her fellowship ended last summer, she's continued working at Weill Cornell with the support of a National Institute of Health K99 "Pathway to Independence" award , and an article on research that she completed during the fellowship, which focuses on a RNA modification and its affect on protein production, is currently in review at a prominent science publication.
These mentorship opportunities and introductions to potential partners for future research collaborations are so important, Dr. Silver said. Home News. June 19, First-year applications must be submitted before Jan. Fellows and Scholars applications must be submitted no later than Jan.
