The BIEN Lab officially started last semester with Arriana Bisram as the lab manager. While the lab was being set up in large thanks to our lab manager, a variety of promising projects have been started by the rotation students and new lab members. With a big congratulations to the new lab members: Dev Patel, Alec Schwendinger, Michelle Croen, Alyssa Hoffman, and Meriem Krarti, we are excited to continue our work in the exciting realm of enzymology and natural products!
