Emily Dykhuizen ’01 et al. move to Purdue

Emily just updated her ‘Reed profile’ with this email to Arthur, “It’s been a crazy year. I’m finishing up my postdoc in a couple months and my husband and I are both starting faculty positions at Purdue University in the Department of Medicinal Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology. We only applied to a handful of schools thinking that it would take a couple years to get two positions in the same place. Plus, I had a baby last summer and applying for dozens of jobs turned out to be too much work. I still can’t believe it worked out this year, but I am very happy and ready to start the next stage of my career. Also, I have a paper coming out in Nature next week, so keep an eye out for that!”

FYI – Emily is wrapping up a postdoc in the ‘CrabLab‘ (Jerry Crabtree laboratory) at Stanford.
