Description
Summary:First Person is a series of interviews with the first authors of a selection of papers published in Disease Models & Mechanisms (DMM), helping early-career researchers promote themselves alongside their papers. Lauren Brilli Skvarca and Hwa Han are co-first authors on 'Enhancing regeneration after acute kidney injury by promoting cellular dedifferentiation in zebrafish', published in DMM. Lauren is a Pathologist Investigator Residency Research Training (PIRRT) Fellow at the University Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC), USA, in the lab of Carl Hubel, investigating maternal-fetal cell interactions contributing to placental vascular changes in preeclampsia and postpartum maternal cardiovascular risk. Hwa is a PhD graduate student in the lab of Neil Hukriede at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, USA, and is involved in characterizing regenerative cellular mechanisms in gentamicin-induced acute kidney injury using larval zebrafish as a model organism.
