LAB TRADITIONS

The Disease Molecular Biology and Epigenetics Laboratory fosters a culture of mentorship, collaborative work, excellence and camaraderie. The lab, however, is known for its family-like atmosphere and is bound by traditions that keep us together. These include lab dinners, BBQs, out-of-town trips in the summer, annual Christmas lunch, trips to local museums, leaving-do(s), traveling together abroad and sightseeing before and after conferences, random happy hour(s), and many more.

​

LAB DINNERS, BBQs and HOUSE PARTIES (Slide Deck Galleries)

​

Members of the lab always look forward to lab dinners and BBQs, whether it's part of our post-conference celebrations in Korea or Japan, toast to those who just defended their theses, mini-reunions in Europe or Asia, send-off for a lab member leaving for grad school abroad, or any other excuse.

CHRISTMASES & TRIPS TO MUSEUMS

The lab celebrates Christmas with a "family lunch" and an injection of culture - by visiting one of the local museums together.
