It's that time again - the Koshy lab's favorite holiday (besides Koshy Lab day, of course). This year the lab dressed as pipet varietals - we've got different brands, types, and sizes represented.

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween from the Koshy Lab! Due to the pandemic, we were unable to congregate with our fellow T. gondii enthusiasts this year. Instead, we decided to bring some of the Toxo congress to Arizona by impersonating researchers in the field. See if you can guess who is who!
Emily invited to speak at SCEP 2020
Wednesday, October 21, 2020
The entire Koshy Lab attended the Southern California Eukaryotic Pathogens Symposium (SCEP) virtually this year. Emily gave a well received talk titled "Are T Cells Recognizing Toxoplasma Injected Neurons?" (Go Em!) It was awesome to be able to interact with our friends at UCI and to hear about the ongoing research on some of our favorite Eukaryotic pathogens ... even if only from a Zoom screen.
