Description

I will give a talk on telomeres, the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes. I will discuss how the RNA component of the enzyme telomerase was discovered, and the work we have begun to determine if this component is ever found outside the cell’s nucleus. In addition, I will talk about my career path through industry and a liberal arts college.
