Alice was selected as a 2019 SUHF Young Investigator! The Suh Kyungbae Science Foundation (SUHF) is a non-profit foundation established in 2016 and selects three to five early-stage Korean scientists through a world-wide open recruiting process every year.

Alice was invited to the 4th International Brainstorm Symposium— The Expanding Role of Repetitive Sequences in Disease—hosted by the University of Florida Center for NeuroGenetics. Alice gave a talk on transposons in human health and disease, and enjoyed meeting many other scientists who study all...

Alice presented her work on " Immune Signatures Correlate with L1 Retrotransposition in Gastrointestinal Cancers" at the Keystone Symposia: Mobile Genetic Elements and Genome Plasticity ( http://www.keystonesymposia.org/18B7) in one of her favorite venues, Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Alice was invited to a transposon workshop on " Transposable Elements at the Crossroad of Health and Disease" to be held in Barbados in January, 2019. A 90-min informal session for each speaker on the Caribbean beach is the norm, the organizers say!

The Lee lab took a one-day excursion to enjoy the beautiful New England fall foliage. Our eager guest hiker, Lixing Yang, from the University of Chicago, intimidated us into making an ambitious plan to suffer through the challenging Franconian Ridge Loop trail , and then by some twist of fate...
