2019 Halloween Symposium A Spooky Success

From kicking off the day with a talk on ancient DNA from a costume clad Dr. Beth Shapiro to slides shared about spider diversity, PacBio sequencing, and mint breeding, the 2019 Halloween Symposium was a success. Prizes were awarded for best individual costume (winner: Mia Kelley), best lab costume (Dennis Lab), best pumpkin (Michelmore Lab), and best poster (Ulrika Beitnere, of the Segal Lab). The $2,000 GC Core Facility Services raffle winner was Gaurav Sarode of the Medici Lab, Internal Medicine.
