Trinna Cuellar, BS

I did my Ph.D. work in the McManus lab and finished up my dissertation in May 2009.  I became hooked on small RNAs during my undergraduate studies in  2001, when the Tuschl, Bartel and Ambros labs, discovered that hundreds of small RNAs exist in animal genomes. Since I just could not get small RNAs off of my mind, I joined the McManus lab and worked on a mouse model which we depleted miRNAs in the brain. 
Now, that I have graduated and left the lab, I am happy to say that I am still studying small RNAs at Genentech.
