Congratulations to Shauna Marvin, who became the first grandchild of Olexa and Sophia Harbuziuk to earn a PhD degree.
Shauna's proud parents, Ray and Leela, who is a daughter of Olexa and Sophia, also are deserving of congratulations.
Shauna defended her PhD dissertation from Loyola University Chicago Biomedical Sciences Program in the Microbiology and Immunology Department on December 5, 2012. During her time in Dr. Christopher Wiethoff's lab, she studied innate and adaptive immune evasion of adenovirus during cell entry.
In January, Shauna will begin a postdoctoral fellowship at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in the lab of Dr. Stacey Schultz-Cherry, studying influenza and astrovirus infection.
Congratulations, Shauna, on a job well done, and best wishes for your work in Memphis, Tennessee.
