Farewell to Zach!!
June 6, 2023 – Today was the end of an era. Zach Ralston has been a huge personality and contributor since the lab’s inception. His sense of humor, diligence, dedication, joy for science, and team-oriented mentality will certainly be missed and impossible to replace. We wish him luck on his path in medicine!! We celebrate with some Southern food and cocktails at Lucile’s!!
