Dear Dr. Brown and JHNeurophyte Family,
I hope all is well. I just wanted to
send a small update and let you know
that I’m joining the lab of Dr. Huda Zoghbi at the Baylor College of
Medicine! Thank you so much again for all your help these past few years. I’m particularly grateful for your insight and advice. I genuinely couldn’t have done it without you!
Sincerely,
Liz Chu
