A huge congrats to DR. Ande Marini @Marini_Ande on a successful and wonderful PhD thesis defense. It has been a pleasure to watch her grow. Ande’s leadership and collaborative nature will be sorely missed in the @PittVbl and I know she will do well as a post-doc at @Stanford.

Fun being the @cmu_bme seminar speaker today. We’re next door neighbors/collaborators but don’t always take the time to slow down and really visit with each other. Today we did. Thanks to @PittVbl for surprising me with your presence as I presented your amazing collective work.
