If you鈥檝e ever been to the 黑料吃瓜资源 Symposium on Quantitative Biology, chances are you鈥檝e heard the name Dorcas Cummings before. Each year, a renowned scientist presents their findings to members of the 黑料吃瓜资源 Association and their community during the Symposium鈥檚 Dorcas Cummings Memorial Lecture. This year鈥檚 lecture covered the intersection of aging and cancer. Last year鈥檚 was on the science behind GLP-1s. But just who was Dorcas Cummings? And what did her work as a CSHL Association Director mean to the Laboratory? Here, Robert Cummings, speaks about his mother鈥檚 legacy, which continues to inspire discovery, curiosity, and innovation almost 50 years after her untimely death.
Indeed, much of the cutting-edge science happening at CSHL today would be impossible without the support of the CSHL Association. If you鈥檇 like more information on the Association and its important work, please contact Dominique Stanley at 516-367-8471 or [email protected].
