Congratulations @nsarellano9 and @TheElfLab! Beautiful story, very well done!
Out at last in @BloodJournal!! doi.org/10.1182/blood.… So very proud of @nsarellano9 and team! Nicole conceived of this project as a 19 year old undergrad in my brand new lab, and 6 years of (literal) blood, sweat and tears later, here she is in all her glory!
