Meet the #preLighters: Jade Chan 🌟
Interview 👉https://prelights.biologists.com/news/meet-the-prelighters-a-virtual-chat-with-jade-chan/
Jade is a PhD student at SickKids Research Institute in Toronto, Canada, where she studies the role of a potassium channel protein in medulloblastoma.
We spoke about #PhDLife, future #goals, #scicomm + the adorable sweaters she knits for her dog, Pip 🐶
Jade Chan is a graduate student in the labs of Dr. Xi Huang and Dr. C.C. Hui at SickKids Research Institute in Toronto, Canada. Her research interests cover the fields of mechanobiology and cancer neuroscience, among others, and she currently studies the function of a specific potassium channel protein. Here, Jade tells us how she[...] Read More

Monica is a #postdoc #HUNIMED who studies the molecular mechanisms underlying neurogenesis and human neurodevelopmental disorders.
We spoke about her #career, future #goals, and the importance of #preprints and #community.
As part of the #preLights5thBirthday celebrations, we’ve asked #preLighters what they think is the best thing preLights offers the biological #community.
This video bundles together some of the lovely responses we’ve received. 🎥
Special thanks to Angika Basant, Divya Pathak, Kanika Khanna, Jade Chan, Ethan Ewe, Saanjbati Adhikari, Giuliana Clemente, Laura Celotto & Juan Moriano!
preLights has turned 5 today! 🎉
What a journey it has been so far! This video highlights some milestones since its launch in 2018. Thanks to all #preLighters for making preLights what it is today. 👏
Setting (and teaching) the right example at the right time: #PeerReview classes at undergraduate level lead to increased scientific literacy and a heightened sense of belonging to the biological #community.
#preLighters Kanika Khanna, Giuliana Clemente, @JACoates & Reinier Prosee highlight an important #preprint from Dr Lijek and team showing that #PeerReview classes at undergraduate level (#MtHolyoke) lead to increased scientific literacy & sense of belonging in STEM.
Meet the #preLighters: Chee Kiang (Ethan) Ewe. 🌟
