Several members of the Hubmacher lab were selected for podium presentations at the Biannual Meeting of the American Society for Matrix Biology in St. Louis: Brandon presented in the “Elastic Fibers” session, Keron and Nandaraj presented a flash talk preview of their posters, Nandaraj presented at the Iozzo Award symposium (and won!) and Dirk, who is an ASMB council member, presented in the “Protease” session and chaired a session. It was a great opportunity to hear the latest research in matrix biology and to explore the wonderful city of St. Louis!
