Shaolin Li M.Sc.
shaolin.li@mail.mcgill.ca
Shaolin joined the Roy lab as a Master student. After he finished his degree, he remained in the lab as a research assistant. He is particularly interested in how AMPK regulates L1 worm diapause, as well as new lab techniques to improve experimental efficiency.
Sabih Rashid
Ph.D. student
sabih.rashid@mail.mcgill.ca
Sabih completed his Master’s degree in Biochemistry at McMaster University. He joined the Roy lab in September 2019 as a Ph.D. student. His project focuses on understanding how AMPK regulates small RNAs during the dauer stage. In particular, he is interested in how AMPK interacts with components of RNA interference pathways during the dauer stage, how changes in small RNA populations impact fertility and health in AMPK-deficient worms, and how these effects are transgenerationally inherited.
McLean Sherrin
Ph.D. student
mclean.sherrin@mail.
mcgill.ca
McLean completed his B.Sc. in Biochemistry at McGill University. He joined the Roy lab in September 2019 as a M.Sc. student. He is interested in how AMPK prevents genomic instability following starvation-induced L1 diapause and R-loop establishment and maintenance.
Elena Jurczak
Ph.D. student
elena.jurczak@mail.
mcgill.ca
Elena completed her B.Sc. in Anatomy and Cell Biology at McGill University and joined the Roy Lab as an undergraduate student in the winter of 2020. She is continuing her research as a PhD student, studying the role of AMPK in regulating the dynamics of small RNA homeostasis and germ stem cell integrity during the dauer stage of C. elegans.
