From the Cold to the Old

Via the CM/AMO rumor mill, Phillipe Cluzel  has moved from U Chicago to Harvard.  The Cluzel lab has done work on in vivo mRNA quantification (a hot topic in a lot of labs), as well as trying to understand the dynamics of the network that controls bacterial chemotaxis.  I interviewed for a postdoc with the Cluzel lab before winding up here at Stanford, and I have to say I'm pretty glad that I wind up working there so that I could arrive just prior to a lab move; there's no better way to lose six months of research time than to have totear down a lab, move it 1000 miles, and set it up in a new place.  That aside however, congrats to the Cluzel lab, and good luck at Harvard (or as Tommy Angelini, a friend and postdoc there likes to call it, "Tardvard.")
