What They Are Doing Now: Michael Gatlin (PhD 2009)

Image:

Michael Gatlin (Ph.D. 2009) Michael’s dissertation research with Dan Colley was on host immunogenetics in relationship to resistance to reinfection by schistosomes. His work followed up on 40 years of research by Dan on the immunology of schistosomiasis. As fate would have it, Michael’s postdoctoral research in Nancy Manley's lab at UGA on the developmental biology of the thymus was in the same area as Dan’s work 41 years ago, i.e. lymphocyte development in the thymus! Michael completed his postdoc with Nancy in July 2010 and saw the results of another developmental biology project (with his wife, Pam), the birth of his daughter Naomi Grace, on July 25, 2010. Michael is starting a teaching position at Clarke Central High School, Athens, GA, in August 2010.
