Dr. Travis D. Carney

PostDoc

Travis is originally from the Pacific Northwest, having received a B.S. from Western Washington University and a Ph.D. from the University of Oregon. During his graduate work, he used Drosophila to study the genetic control of neural stem cell self-renewal and differentiation. He completed his postdoctoral training in Prof. Shcherbata’s lab in Germany, first at the Max Planck Institute and then at Hannover Medical School, focusing on the effects of regulatory RNAs on differentiation processes.
