Dr Sanjay Kumar Sukumar

Congratulations Dr Sanjay Kumar Sukumar on successfully defending your thesis “Investigating the functions of Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase in neuronal tissues”.

After a fruitful (fruitfly?) couple of years at the Palmer lab Sanjay defended his thesis in the Arvid Carlson auditorium, in the presence of family, friends and colleagues. '

Spar-kling (!) wine!

After his thesis presentation Sanjay argued for its validity both in a laboratory setting and the natural world. He also introduced some new terminology that offer great insight in visual interpretation of confocal images.

Clarifying some concepts and defending his conclusions

The Palmer group is very happy to have had Dr Sukumar here and lucky that he decided to stay for a while longer.
