Just another productive day in the ding lab...
Mingchao became the FIRST student to graduate from our lab! His thesis was titled "Discovery and functional implication of genetic alterations associated with clonal hematopoietic expansion". Mingchao's hard work and wonderful personality serve as a model for the graduate students who will follow him. He will go on to do many great things!
The lab dressed in green and blue to celebrate Mingchao's defense.
