The Drubin/Barnes Yeast and HeLa Cell Manufacturing Company is excited to welcome Lillie Cohn as a new graduate student in the lab! Lillie is a first year in the Molecular and Cell Biology program at UC-Berkeley. Her proposed thesis project is “The Meaning of Life.” On this occasion, let us pause to consider these wise words of the sage Philosoraptor:
