I came to MIT because of its outstanding research, and have been continually impressed by the breadth and impact of the work done in this department.  In the Amon lab, I get to be a part of a team doing creative, rigorous science. Angelika’s mentorship and the department’s support have given me the opportunity to tackle ambitious questions. I’ve really enjoyed the collaborative spirit of the Koch Institute, where my lab is based, and benefited enormously from the expertise of the members of the core facilities.
