Team members are (from left): Sarah C.R. Elgin, Ph.D., the Viktor Hamburger Distinguished Professor in Arts & Sciences who led the team; Sarah Gadel, lab technician; Nicole C. Riddle, Ph.D., research assistant professor of biology in Arts & Sciences; and Tingting Gu, Ph.D., a postdoctoral research associate in biology. Missing is Sarah Marchetti, a technician.
