Outstanding Scholarship Award goes to Huan Yang

Congratulations Huan Yang for receiving one of the Outstanding Scholarship Awards from the Graduate School.  Huan is a Biological Sciences PhD student who has been working in Dr. Jason Carter’s integrative physiology lab the last 4.5 years. She is expected to graduate this summer and has a post-doctoral fellowship offer from a productive group of sleep physiologists at Harvard.

Huan was recently first author on some research from our laboratory, and that work was selected by the Editor-In-Chief of the American Journal of Physiology – Heart and Circulatory Physiology for their popular podcast series.  Briefly, the journal editor and editorial board select 2-3 articles per month to highlight with a 10 minute podcast with the senior author, associate editor, and another expert in the field.  This podcast was posted here yesterday.
