Alan Hall and Norton B. Gilula Awards
To support the next generation of researchers, JCB provides the Alan Hall and Norton B. Gilula Awards that allow undergraduates, graduate, and early-career postdocs to attend Cell Bio, an annual meeting of the American Society for Cell Biology (ASCB) and the European Molecular Biology Organization (EMBO). This year, we offered two awards of up to $1,000 USD each to attend Cell Bio 2023, December 2–6 in Boston, MA.

Dr. Jessica Moore recently completed her PhD training in the lab of Dr. Valentina Greco at Yale University School of Medicine. In her thesis work, she uncovered cellular and molecular regulators of calcium signaling within the stem cell pool of the skin epidermis. Jess recently joined Dr. Çagla Eroglu’s lab at Duke University as a postdoctoral researcher and is investigating the crosstalk between astrocytes and the vasculature during brain development. |

Brady Goulden grew up in a small rural farming town near Gettysburg Pennsylvania and left his hometown to study Biology at Penn State in 2012. After graduating in 2016, he joined the laboratory of Gerry Hammond at the University of Pittsburgh where he gained a love for microscopy and membrane signaling. Following this passion, he joined the BCMB PhD program in 2018 at Johns Hopkins University, where he currently has been studying lipid signaling during membrane trafficking at neuronal synapses with Shigeki Watanabe. |
