Emily Egan is a Research Associate in the Department of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology at Harvard Medical School. Her research in Dr. Steve Blacklow’s lab focuses on the Notch signaling pathway, which is involved in many biological processes from development to cancer. In addition to her research, Dr. Egan helps to make sure the Blacklow lab operations run smoothly. In this interview, Emily describes her work, how COVID forced her to shut it down, how she and her family coped, and what helping to manage a lab was like during this difficult time. http://linkedin.com/in/emilyeganphd
