Chris has published three first authored publications related to this work, in Molecular Biology of the Cell<\/em>, Cytoskeleton<\/em> and the Journal of Neuroscience<\/em> and is having a major impact on the emerging field of intermediate filaments in neuronal development.\u00a0 Chris expresses his appreciation for the invaluable help he has received from his advisor, Bettina Winckler, fellow members of the Winckler lab, especially Dr. Chan Choo Yap, and the members of his PhD dissertation committee: Noelle Dwyer, Xiaowei Lu and Doug DeSimone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
