Current Role at StanfordLaboratory Assistant - Parkinson’s Research
As a lab assistant at the Schuele Lab in the Stanford Department of Pathology, I actively contribute to research focused on understanding Parkinson's disease and developing potential therapies. My role involves a diverse range of tasks, allowing me to gain valuable experience in various laboratory techniques and research methodologies.
Being part of the lab has allowed me to engage in hands-on learning and observation of essential lab techniques, including DNA extraction and analysis, immunostaining of tissues, PCRs, tissue cultures, working with iPSCs, etc. I have been immersed in a laboratory setting that allows me to work alongside accomplished researchers and clinicians. My experiences in learning these techniques have deepened my understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in neurodegeneration and the potential avenues for therapeutic intervention.
The Schuele Lab's primary focus lies in gene discovery and novel stem cell technologies. We utilize cutting-edge methods to generate patient-specific stem cell models from individuals with Parkinson's disease. These models offer invaluable into understand the underlying causes of neurodegeneration, providing a foundation for developing targeted biomarkers and innovative therapies.
My time in the Schuele Lab has not only enriched my technical skills but also deepened my appreciation for the impact that dedicated researchers can have on improving the lives of patients. -
Stephen Orgel
Jackson Eli Reynolds Professor of Humanities, Emeritus
BioStephen Orgel has published widely on the political and historical aspects of Renaissance literature, theater, art history and the history of the book. His work is interdisciplinary, and is increasingly concerned with the patronage system, the nature of representation, and performance practice in the Renaissance. His most recent book is Imagining Shakespeare (2003), and he is the author of The Authentic Shakespeare (2002), Impersonations: The Performance of Gender in Shakespeare's England (Cambridge, 1996), The Illusion of Power (Berkeley, 1975), Inigo Jones (London and Berkeley, 1973, in collaboration with Sir Roy Strong), and The Jonsonian Masque (Cambridge, Mass., 1965). He has edited Ben Jonson's masques, Christopher Marlowe's poems and translations, the Oxford Authors John Milton, The Tempest and The Winter's Tale in The Oxford Shakespeare, Trollope's Lady Anna, and Edith Wharton's The Custom of the Country, The Age of Innocence and The Reef in the Oxford World's Classics. He is the general editor of Cambridge Studies in Renaissance Literature and Culture, and of the new Pelican Shakespeare. He has been awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship, NEH Fellowships, and ACLS Fellowships; he has been a Getty Fellow, a visiting fellow at New College, Oxford, and most recently the Clark Lecturer at Trinity College, Cambridge. He is a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.
