A poster presentation by doctoral student Yuna Son was selected as one of the top two best student presentations at the 1st Southern Genome Maintenance Conference. The Environmental Mutagenesis and Genomics Society held the conference on Oct. 20-21. The research for her poster, "A single dose of low energy x-ray radiation is sufficient to block the proliferation of keloid fibroblasts," was funded by a College of Medicine seed grant. Son is a doctoral student under Associate Professor Akash Gunjan.
