What a terrific
MCCS meeting last Friday! For over 25 years, this small meeting has included presentations from trainees side by side with leaders in the field. Great to have some Abel lab alumni join some of the current lab in our photo!

A moving visit to the Aga Khan Palace in Pune, which is closely linked to the Indian Freedom Movement. Gandhi and his wife were imprisoned here from 1942 to 1944. It is inspiring to see how the actions of one individual can change the course of history πŸ™πŸ»
