Announcements
All of us in the Developmental Biology community at the University of Utah extend our thanks and gratitude to Susan Mango for her outstanding and tireless service as Director of the DBTG. Hers will be a very difficult act to follow, but without a doubt, one that is worthy of emulation. Thank you Susan for all you have done for us.
