Say hello to Dr. Keith Berggren! Keith successfully defended his doctoral thesis on "Epitranscriptomic Modification in Liver Biology and Disease" at his final public oral last Tuesday, with Alex as his doctoral mentor. His work focused on epitranscriptomic modifications, such as N6-methyl-adenosine (m6A) and 5-methyl-cytosine (m5c), their associated reader, writer, and eraser machinery, and their roles and mechanisms in liver disease, bringing considerable promise as prognostic and diagnostic markers of liver pathology.

Keith has worked incredibly hard to earn his PhD in Molecular Biology, and this is but yet another brilliant milestone in his career. We are all very proud of him and excited to see him achieve this significant accomplishment. We wish him all the best in his future endeavors!
