Dr. Hedglin and Samuel (Sam) Perreault (5th year Chemistry PhD student) attended the FASEB Science Research Conference on Ubiquitin and Ubiquitin-like Proteins that was held in Niagara Falls, New York. Sam presented a poster on his research project entitled “DECIPHERING THE ACTIVATION OF THE HUMAN E2/E3 COMPLEX RESPONSIBLE FOR MONOUBIQUITINATION OF PCNA AT DNA DAMAGE TOLERANCE SITES.” This was the first time the Hedglin Lab attended this conference and we are thankful to the community for their feedback on Sam’s project.
