I was invited to give a talk at University of Pennsylvania, for the School of Veterinary Medicine, Parasitology Seminar Series. What a great institution and collection of scientists who study molecular parasitology and the immune response to these pathogens. My host, Chris Hunter, showed me around...

Congratulations to Scott, who received a travel award to attend and give a talk at the 2019 Woods Hole Immuno-Parasitology (WHIP) meeting!! Great job Scott.

Felipe Rodriguez does it again, receives ‘Honorable Mention’ for his poster presentation at the 43rd Annual West Coast Biological Sciences Undergraduate Research Conference, held at St. Mary’s College, CA.

Graduate Student Samantha Splitt, successfully defends her Master’s Thesis. Awesome job! You have made major scientific contributions in such a short time. Good luck in your future endeavors, and we will miss having you in the Jensen lab.

Graduate Student, Scott Souza joins the lab. Welcome Scott and I look forward to having you in the lab!
